Financing options for band removal? Desperate!
StephColleen174 replied to Rubyjade's topic in Insurance & Financing
I'm in the same position! I really don't want to get a loan if I don't have to but I am so incredibly miserable. I'm almost at the point I will just go to the ER when it is urgent and hopefully get admitted. I had the same problem in April 2013 and insurance ended up paying for it. -
Revision Surgery; Weight Maintained

no! I'm having the same problem and really don't want to lose my band! -
Did you finish the program? I just found it and the amount of food is insane! I'm trying to figure out the best way to make it work for me.

Revision Surgery

I have had the same problem! First time around I wasn't hungry after surgery and now I could eat everything! At least I try to work out 6 days a week but its still tough when I know that nothing is getting stuck going down and I'm hungry! Come on next Friday for my first "refill" -
My band slipped about a year and a half after surgery and it felt like someone was sitting on my chest, not to mention that some days I kept food down and other days I vomited constantly!

Severe acid reflux
StephColleen174 replied to Whillow's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
sleeping laying down? oh I cant wait! Glad that everything worked out for you without too much intervention or having to get your band removed. that is my fear. I will def call them after the holiday! I am 3lb from goal so if they emptied most of it I wouldnt be horribly worried. I have only had 3 fills and at the last one he said it was only half full so I have some space to play with. -

I have the horrible heartburn so I have carafate slurry and Protonix but does anyone have a problem with frequent vomiting? I am one year out and the vomiting just started recently. Regardless of what I eat.
