HI all I was just wondering how much pain are you in when you get the fills, Im talking the needle do they numb you first in that area, or jsut straight in. Im not too sure about needles, but I am willing to put up with t for the sake of losing my weight. Any help:biggrin:

Hi all just wondering does anyone know where I can get some information as to what foods you have to eat after the banding operation. I know my doctor will give this to me when I have my op, but March seems a long time to wait to get an appointment. Thanks jo

Rastis thanks for your information. That does help. I am ging ot be ringing up this morning to see if there are any cancelations, although I know there wont be. But I can try. March seem to long to wait. I dont know if I can wait that long, with out trying to lose some weight. But I am worried that if I lose some I wont be able to get it done. thanks Jo

Hi Amy Its good to see someone on here that has been to DR Kiearth, I was recommended to him by my aunty who had the banding doen 2yrs ago. The only bad thing is I can't see him until March the 7th, so I am hoping after seeing him that it wont to long to get in and get banded. As I booked to see him in November sometime, his office has been shut since early dec until the 16th Jan. just wainting now. thanks jo

HI jen, thanks for your reply, good luck with your surgery tomorrow. That is my birthday on that day. Hope all goes well for you. thanks Jo

HI Fanny I am new to this site and have found it to be really good for geting heaps of information. I am due to see Dr Keiarth in perth on 7th March, its a long wait, and its killing me. I am a bit worried that he wont put the band on for me as I am only 35 kgs over weight. My doctor did reccommend it as my weight keeps going up, and there is history in my family for diabetes. I am on a waiting list ot go in earlier, and hopefully I may get in sooner. thanks jo

HI All I am new to this area, after I have been doing some reseach into Lap band. I have a appointment booked on 7th march to see Dr Keiarth in perth. It seems to long to wait. I need to know if any one can give more info on the surgery. How long will I be off work for, I do property management and only really sit at a desk all day and some driving around. Also how many times will the band need to be filled before it starts working. Also does it hurts when it gets filled up? Any help would be great. thanks JO
