Hey,
didnt speak to you for ages! how are you? how is the band? I just had my first fill today. was supposed to be 2 weeks ago, but when he tried to insert the needle the tissue was not healed enough to go through without damaging. so finally had it this morning. I'm good, lost 9 kilos and hopefully that will pick up with the fill........
what you up to?
take care

Hello,
I keep missing you in the chat room.
How are things? Any further news?
Bad news from my side too, my mums tests continually were coming back negative for cancer.....the last one was to take extra tissue from where the lump had been and test just to make sure the lump hadnt been shooting out tiny cancerous cells. The results came back yesterday and although it is very early stages the re-constructed breast has cancer in it again. She has to have another mastectomy :-( the past 6 years have been spent reconstructing it perfectly and now it has to go again. I'm more upset than my mum.....she is very positive about the whole thing. Luckily they can confirm in is not inavsive and has not moved outside of the breast.
Hope you are ok, and sorry to go on......
Take care and chat soon

Hello!
I'm doing much better now, had quite a lot of discomfort at first, esp from the port, but it has got much easier. Started back to work today......and just been for a hair cut so feel better still!!!
How are you? How did everything go? I was thinking about you on wednesday. I was online the other day and sent you a msg, but it said you were away - so not sure if you got it.
Have been trying to log on to the chat page, but the system has been very slow and not letting me enter. Will keep trying.
Really hope you are well.
Take Care

Recent "bandits"

Banded 1st July! Change for life! :tongue_smilie: After much research i was under the impression i'd be fine after a few days. Ha ha ha.......was i fooled. It is now July 6th - the smallest thing exhausts me! Luckily took 10 days off work following surgery, so i'm hoping by next week all will be well? I've found the mix of liquid diet and medication quite difficult.......strong painkillers on more or less empty stomach cause sickness and nausea. Luckily surgeon said i could have creamy soups to get some protein - which has helped! Cant wait to start on mushies!!!!! :thumbdown: -

Looking for Bandsters in Dubai

Hi Akheya....thanks for the reply! Well Dr Faruq practices at many surgeries in Dubai and internationally. his website is www.surgery.ae - they have all been very helpful. had all the tests done now, so all set to go on July 1st! i was going to go through cosmesurge who also use Chris de bruyne, but once i knew he was rarely here i changed my mind. :thumbup: Where are you located? When is your surgery? I'm trying to prepare for the pre-op diet, was told to do slim-fast but cant as allergic to milk. so got to find a completely fat free diet that is simple. :thumbup: Take care -

Hi, I've chosen to have surgery with Dr Faruq Badiuddin. He has a good reputation, and have met him already to discuss the procedure - he is also providing the aftercare. If anyone wants to chat, please let me know.......? :frown:
