Bad breath, icky mouth
MarylandMommy replied to 2GoodDogs's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
what were you given for treatment...not to thread crash, but I have to swish and swallow with Nystatin prior to surgery *scheduled for Wednesday...and I noticed yesterday a bump on my tongue and more bumps on the back of my tongue....I do not know if this is a reaction to the swish and swallow, but I thought it was supposed to get rid of yeast??? -
Which band starts out with a little fill in it...realize or lap???
-
I have been doing the Atkins shakes...I also like the Muscle Milk Chocolate....I just ordered Gourmet Whey Smooth Peanut Butter Chocolate..from different recommendations, I hope it's good! Also if you call Syntrax they will send you free samples of Nectar! I should receive mine early next week!!

New Program Fee
MarylandMommy replied to prayershawl's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had to pay a $500 fee which covers some exercise program (which I will not use), the nutritionist for 3 visits, the support groups and the pyschological eval...maybe more appts with her, I do not remember. I would think if it was initiated mid process, you should be grandfathered in and not have to pay.... -

Which band is pre-filled?
MarylandMommy replied to MarylandMommy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
my doc does not generally fill at surgery either...it was just a small amount. I remember distinctly hearing they put some in one and not the other...that is why I asked...Thanks for all the responses! -
I'm July 9th also!!!! Good luck to you!!!!

Endoscopy concerns
MarylandMommy replied to frazzledmomof2's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have had 2 since beginning this process....I was completely out both times! The last thing I remember both times was them telling me to enjoy my nap The only side effect for me was a little tired, a slight headache and a scratchy throat GL! -
I am being banded July 9th by Dr. Greene. I will be getting fills with him, but not sure if they will all be paid for by insurance. Any suggestions for other docs is greatly appreciated!!! TIA
