Morning Lucy I know of Dr Diggory i live about 20 miles from Telford,i am not having the aftercare package either.I am going through EOC to Belgium and staying at the Arcacis hotel Mike
-
Hi Lucy can i ask where your fill was done and did you have the aftercare package?
-
Hi Helen nice to hear you are doing well with your band,i am now 10 days away from my op and still very nervous.
-
The lifestyle change is not my major concern,it is the lack of fill centers in the Uk and when you find one the cost is totally unjustifiable.
-
The concern i have are mostly to do with complications and possible failure to lose weight,also the pathetic back up in the UK regarding Fills and the outrageous costs involved in what is a 5 minute procedure
-
