"with the band"

Nykee , I sure hope you are doing well and I hope that you get everything at the right level so that you can start losing and you can get your nutrition. Take care.

I went to Northwest Surgical Associates - Dr. Duckett and Dr. Oweiss - they are located in Maumee, Ohio just outside of Toledo, Ohio. They are very good and I believe they are very well respected. (419) 893-5591

Nice to know - hope all goes well and that you heal completely with no troubles.

I was banded on July 25th 2005 and have recently experienced bad reflux that made me feel like something was stuck in my throat forever. I never had it before banding and would like to know if anyone else has had it. My lap-band nurse said none of her other patients had this. I thought to myself "of course - I would be the weirdo to do this"

Big hugs....many prayers for comfort and peace for you.

what made you know that something was wrong with you in the first place. What type of symptoms did you have.

Ok - I haven't exercised other than (laying in the pool on a raft) since surgery - 7/25/05. I guess I'm overdue....so I am up for it. I have a treadmill DH bought for me also about 5 years ago - I know I can do that without hurting myself. I will start tomorrow (I have to clear all the upcoming vacation wardrobe off of it - cause I am getting ready to go on a cruise with hubby for our 20th anniversary) I'll get a work out just getting this stuff packed and situated tonight.

I will be praying for you. Take care.

I was banded on Monday - July 25, 2005. I am going to be going on a cruise on Sept. 17 for our 20th wedding anniversary which is Sept. 7th. I feel good other than a few reflux type symptoms going on.

That is all too much.....and i have been stressing over reflux and flipping out.....I am praying for Jessica...God Help Her!!!

Thanks - I am praying and I believe it will go away for me. It has been better the past two days.

I am a artist and writer and I do exhibits of my "Poetry Art" all over. I am an excellent cook and I spend alot of time making great dishes for my hubby to enjoy.
