    Thanks I did like the literature and website better for the Realize band but dont want that to be my final decision! last weekend when I saw MD he told me one of the bands has a port than can be replaced seperatly instead of the whole band in case of problem but I dont remember which one he said. Ialso know the Realize has been used for many years in Europe as the Swedish band so that reassures me somewhat

    Im an RN and scheduled to work Dec 25th, the job isnt very happy if im going to be off then, Im getting banded Dec 15th do you think I should be ok for work then. MD will give up to 3 weeks off if needed but its hard when you have a holiday componant to work and elective surgeries are frowned on around those times.
