Dr. George Mueller - Dr. Mueller Rocks!
SD-MTN-MAN posted a topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
Dr. Mueller completed my Lap-Band yesterday and it was such a smooth experience. My pain is well controlled with the medication, I am walking around my property up here in Pine Valley, things are going well. -
Hey Y'all: I was just banded on Tuesday. I started on my clear liquid diet yesterday, and noticed pretty bad reflux and general stomach discomfort. As an RN I know this will go away, but, I would just like re-assurance others have been through this.

I just wanted to introduce myself, I am a 45 y/o male who lives in Pine Valley, CA. Up in the mountains, 4000 feet, east of San Diego. I have struggled with weight all of my life and have my Lap-Band on 06 October 2009, and started my pre-op protein shake diet yesterday. I am feeling very tired and lethargic, but, this is nothing for a chance to turn my life around. Later Dave

Thanks Dr.Mueller is my doctor at Sharp Memorial.

No thanks for all of the detail, that really helps decrease anxiety. I just love the modern world, a Canadian in London is chatting with someone in the mountains of California, pretty cool. So no Narcotics needed?
-
Thanks How was the pain for you? How did they treat it? Where you in the hospital over night or did you go home the same day?
-
Interesting. Yes I have Blue Cross and my suregery is completely covered. I do have to pay about $500 out of pocjer, but, that seems reasonable. Yes the pre-op period is getting on my nerves and I am very anxious to get the procedure completed.

Welcome Kim! I have my surgical date on 06 October 2009 for my Lap-Band and am currently on my pre-operative liquid diet. So did the NHS pay for your banding or did you have to pay out of pocket? I live in the mountains outside of San Diego, California with my wife and two daughters. Dave

Thanks to both of you so much!!!

Hey All: How do I add a picture so that it appears when I post or reply? Also How does one add the "weight ticker" to their signature line when they post? Dave

Thanks I am hanging in there. On one level it feels very nice to eat so healthily, just not used to it I suppose.

Thanks to you both!
