Had to share my 1 week post-op news!
silygoose replied to mrwindt's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
hi guys, what awesome results.. I was banded sept 21 2005 almost 3 weeks out, I have lost 30 pounds I wonder if i am eatting enough. I am always hungry but make sure i never eat more than 2 oz of food at a time. and usually only eat 3-4 times a day.. I am on mushies and Soups. I am scared to death i will over eat and cause my band to slip or pouch to explode johnette -
i was banded in TJ by doctor verboonen and ponce de leon of obesity goodbye . The facility was clean, i never felt in any danger.even tho it was atiquated by us standards. I didnt think to ask about the actual surgery tools! fingers crossed on that one, im 31/2 weeks post op and the sites look fine. I am a respiratory therapist and yes you can sterialize rubber, we used to all the time using cidex and metrazone. You cant plastic which most of our modern supplies are made out of. I still would not want a reused cath tho ick! johnette

If anyone needs a scale that goes higher than the standard ones, I have a digital scale that goes to 550 which i got from ebay, with shipping it costs about 70-75.00. a little steep but it works well for higher weights. johnette -
Fills, local care for Mexico patients in PHX, AZ?
silygoose replied to LilAngel's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Hi everyone, I am a new AZ bandster, since we seem to have problems getting fills perhaps we could car pool to TJ? Just a thought johnette Ps- recieved this reply from fillcentersusa Our Arizona locations should be opening November 7th. Our prices are $299 for your first consult and fill then $155 for each additional. Or we will have a monthly plan that you can pay (around $95/mo.) and get monthly follow-up visits and 4 fills a year. This is recommended for best results. Or if you do not want to become a member and just want one fill you can pay $214 each fill. You can look over the rest of our program and a little more of what it will Intel on our website at http://www.fillcentersusa.com/fillcenters.html
