I had my banding done July 1, 2004 by Dr. Bhesania, and every thing has gone just as he said it would. I live near Lapeer, Mi. about 50 miles from Port Huron. I am very satisfied with the banding and the Port Huron Hospital and I have now lost just about all of the wieght that I expected to and I plan to keep my band as my standby. If that is all right with Dr. Bhesania. COUSINJACK

Hi, Darrell, It is good to hear from another guy. It seem that most of the e-mails are done by the fairer sex, which is not all that bad. I was banded 6/29/04 at age of 72 and everything has gone very well and right on schedule. Good Luck, Dave T. 317/182

Inamed ... How many fills?
COUSINJACK replied to antivicky's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I have been banded with a 4-cc band since 6/29/04 and have now had 5 fills. The latest was done 8/14/06 and the band is now at 3.3 cc. It is noticably tighter then before which was 3.1cc , but I still am able to work with it. I have never had any problem with the band as long as I followed the rules. Dave T. -

I also had my banding done in Port Huron in June 04, and I have been looking for other Michiganders. My Doctor was Bhesania and I am very happy with the total experience.

COUSINJACK replied to NancySmiles's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Hi, new Michigan bander. Good luck on your banding I know that you wil find that it is the best thing you may have ever done. I was banded June 29, 2004 and have had two fills now and will have the third one on Oct, 4th. So far I have lost weight and have now believe that I may have reached my sweet spot as I can now tell when I have had enough to eat and no bad experiences. Good Luck again. Dave T. Metamora, Mi. -
HI, My doctor had done over 750 banding as of april/04 and was very comfortable with the procedure and was willing to take time and answer any questions. Today I just received notice that BCBS and Medicare paid my total billing. I hope that they will also take care of the fills. My second one is due on Monday 9/20/04. 307/262/185 72 YO

Hi, My doctor did not request a diet before banding, but he said that is advisable. I dieted for two weeks before the procedure. When he came in to see me after he stated that I had made his job a lot easier. banded June 29, 2004 Port Huron Hospita, Mi. 297/252/185l Dave T.
