  1. Hi This is the morning after my first fill and am feeling a bit sore/bruised in the 'band' area - is this to be expected? Cheers Julie

    Before a fill, do you fast?

    Bloody Nora! I'm glad you have told me that - if I have trouble swallowing spit tomorrow I would have gone into panic mode and probably to the hospital! Thanks

    Pregnant

    Congratulations - I've read quite a bit on different sites about being pregnant and having a band - you'll soon fined your niche. I'm hoping to have another baby once I lose this weight. Good Luck

    Fellow Albertans Help Me!!!!

    Hi I am now booked with surgery with Dr Oritiz and I have to say everyone I have spoken with at the centre has been so helpful. We were thinking of having a few days break there as well and one of the ladies has emailed me with places to visit in San Diego and Tijuana. I am more than happy to be going there in March wooo hoooo Will let you know how I get on if your worried about going out of country. Cheers Julie
  9. Hi I've just booked my surgery in Mexico. I read somewhere that you can claim a small portion of the cost back thru Alberta Health Care. I have been in contact with them and they say if I have it done in Canada I can. I read it on a Alberta website that arranges surgery in Mexico - does this ring any bells with anyone??? Cheers
