I used Dr. Fusco (very expierenced) in Melbourne also. He and his staff are wonderful people. Monthly support groups are included in the price of the surgery. Did I say great people.... http://www.markfuscomd.com/ http://www.lifeshape.net/meet_our_team.htm

I was able to get off prilosec, nexium, antiacids, etc, etc, etc. The problem I had before the band has disappeared. I had one problem once...took nexium for 7 days and gone. It has been about 13 months so far. The doctor explained that most of the acids are produced in the lower stomach and do not come up past the band.

Has anyone tried Xenical for weight loss?
davjb replied to Dutchgrl59's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I tried it and it did not work. I took it for about six months. Lost a little but the side effects present a problem. I often wondered if it would have been alot cheaper to take laxatives everyday. -
