OH YEESH! it's tooo long so hear it is in FOUR post lol, have fun reading..

I take it this site is all about honesty and honestly I would tell you the truth either way. I think my case is rare because I am one of 25 adolesants here in Jacksonville Florida that are part of a trial study. BUT I would not say the Lap-Band has been a good experience, though I am now, more happy than I was a year ago because it has worked and I have lost weight. But it hasn't been a good experience for me. There is the left shoulder pain you may have heard of, a pinched nerve I've heard it is, that can be quite annoying, not necasarily painful but a bad ache. Then if you over eat or don't chew good enough or eat the wrong thing, you will throw up. It's not totally painfull and gross like sick thro up is.
