    matalo, How are you doing now? Could I ask you if your insurance covered your bypass and how you decided to go that route instead of a sleeve? thanks.

    Band To Rny

    Hello TAB, I am also a nurse. Peds. I have a band placed 10/09. Slowly lost 50lbs over 2 years and that was it. Happy about that, don't get me wrong but i am still overweight! Need to loose another 70 lbs to be in a safe BMI.... Now I am having LOTS of problems with the band and have gained back 8 lbs! I wanted to speak to your comment about cooking. Try watching someone you enjoy on the cooking channel/food network. This will help you with techniques and may inspire you to try dishes that look good to you. (healthy ones) Also, are you exercising? I found this is key for me to feel well and less exhausted. When i skip workouts I beging feeling like crap and things continue to decline. Good luck to you TAB

    Hi, Would you share what happened to you before needing your band removed? Thank you!
  6. Yes, good luck to you....Let us know how things work out and thanks for sharing.
  7. Sounds terrible.... I have been having similar issues myself. I've had 2 unfills and started some meds for the reflux without any relief. The next step is an UGI I guess. what's after that who knows. how did you decide to go the RNY route? Hope you feel better soon!!
  8. Chatty, I'm sorry to hear about your complication . Could you share what symptoms you had and how the dilation was discovered please? thank you
