Scared about complications
rxtine replied to SuchaPrettyFaceBUT's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Well, I did a ton of research before I had lap band, so I found and wanted them, and that was when I was 19, wasnt banded till I was 23ish. So, Its worth the drive for me. I heard Montgomery is good! I have Dr. Chock. I wanted a woman doctor. -

I'm not ready but that's because it's not official! I have my phyc eval and my last pre op required visit. It's been a 90 process before they can submit for my insurance approval! So we will see! I really hope to know within a week or so! But I'm in Washington state!! -

I had my band at NWWLS and I'm a revision also. Who was your surgeon? I like mine so I am going back to her! However she can't promise it's a 1 day procedure because if there is too Much scar tissue Etc she won't risk doing it till it heals!

I'm from south king county! Around Renton! Where did you have your surgery? How are you doing 8 days out? -
-
Where are you?

In fact it is 3 months, 8 weeks she has lost on average 2.08 lbs a week! That's perfect!!

Think of it this way, yes we love our piercing a but a new life/body is worth the $60 to re pierce if it closes not worth the risk of keeping them in!

I also had a sub dermal anchor in my chest I had to get removed before going under, and that was an implant so.. Ya
-
When I did my band I had to remove everything. The reason is when you are under and god forbid something happens they need to "shock" you, the metal could be a huge hazard, as you are grounded and it could cause serious burns, etc. even if its not required you should as a big safety precaution! Do some research about wearing metal and going under, taking them out is a small price to pay when you see what could happen!

What is silica?

As I come closer to my last pre op required appointment which is Thursday, then they will submit approval. I am thinking of more issues, being a revision I am terrified of losing weight and then regaining it just like with the lab band. I do not want put my self and body thru this all to regain the weight back. I know I didn't "fail" with the band, we weren't a good partnership. However, will the sleeve be a better partner long haul? =\

I have a weight loss FB and she is a friend on mine. I think she is a bander or rny. Still WLS!
