Lailia dont worry about fills hun i have a needle phobia and i didnt feel a thing honestly it was fine cant wait for the second one lol,lliliebo no one cant tell you what to do but listening to you,you know deep down you want to do it you just need a wee push lol,i was like you size 12 happy go lucky didnt ever have to worry about weight but as i got older and had my last two wonderful kids the weight started comming on slowly at first,then i broke my ankle and had to get metal pins in and was off my feet and all in all i went from a 12/14 to a 20/22 and knew i couldnt accept and cope with the weight i tried all slimming clubs and shakes but the dissapointment is losing a bit then few weeks later you have put in back on,i hated myself and use to hide wearing big coats and i hate going out anywhere even the shops,plus i dont know about you guys it was ruining my relationship as i didnt want my partner my big fat me i was so ashamed of myself so i done this op for me,to get myself back good old bubbly me lol and it is slowly working hun k know i will soon be there and not have to worry about the weight comming back on,so if i was you and feeling like that i would say the sooner the better good luck love and ps just keep emailing freddy he will get back to you,they are so bust and he does take his time xx:wink2:

i would be scared to lemma,i think anyone would,when you go fo an op and you know what is going to happen and what the outcome should be and your's if different and somthing dosnt happen the way everyone else's has it is a worry,but you will be fine hun and each day you will get better,try and sleep on your side with a pillow under you tummy that's what i done and for the wind as hard as it might be try walking it's suppose to really help,i didnt get the wind pains so i can only imagine how it feels,hope when you wake up today it has eased off a bit take care hun:wink2:

dont worry dubgirl frederik package always includes hotel for 3 nights and all your taxi's,you will hear from him shortly,they sometime take a bit of time to get back to you,cause there so busy but they will x:rolleyes2:

your welcome dub and corkgirl,why dont you try the credit union if your in one you only need 1000 to get your loan,then pay it back weekly lol its and idea anyway:thumbup:

hi corkgal sorry to hear about your probs we all know who you are talking about hun,hope you get her lol anyway email dr chris debruyne's manager on frederik.serneels@ecfs.be that is how to go direct it cost 4150 euro and includes taxi's to and from airport and hotel to hospital,3 night stay for 2 in a hotel and your op,you just have to book your flights from dublin aiport and they do fills in cork,dublin and belfast i get mine done in belfast they are a good crowd lots of peep's have gone over from ireland too lol,plus you can get an appointment for surgery within a couple of weeks goodluck :thumbup:

good luck hun,i hope you do video it my niece is going next week and she would love to watch it,will be thinking bout ya tom let us know how you get on xx.well dubgirl have ya made your mind up yet or still debating lol:wink2:

i think you have to check out at 11 or 12 freckles hun,you could ask them if you could keep room a bit longer but i would say they will prob charge ya hun,or just ask can they mind suitcases in a room:unsure:

no i didnt go through a company i went direct with surgeon,dr chris manager frederik serneels you can email him for information if you like on frederik.serneels@ecfs.be there company is ecfs,he i s sometimes slow at getting back but they are great:thumbup:

forgot to say dubgirl they do fills in dublin,cork and belfast,just so you know

i think both surgeons are good,it was prob wls that emailed you,they use to use dr debruyne but said he was too expensive lol cause i was gonna go with them cause they do the 3 year package including aftercar and fills for 4800 sterling,but i just prefered dr debruyne,just because i had read up more on him,i chose to go direct with the surgeon and it cost me 4100euro (3500 sterling) including hotel,taxi's and the op but no fills,the fills are £90 a time,either way you will make a good choice if you need to know anythink else just shout :thumbup:

omg english rose you have done so well,and your nearly at goal,when did you lose the majority of your weight was it in the first year like they say well done hun xx

bet your nerves are starting to kick in now lynda,hey dont forget hun you have to take your passport with you to hospital,cant remember if i told you that woop woop i will have a fill buddy soon xx:lol::tt2::thumbup::thumbup::tt1:

phooh not sure bout taxi i would say about 30-40 euro,but when you get to hotel if you get talking to someone with a package jump in with them,i let someone jump in with me and the drivers dont mind,lemma i told my doc i was thinking of getting it and he was a bit concerned,had i looked into this and was he genuine,and he only sent patients for surgery that were really obese,but i just ignored him and went anyway,there a bit behind onver here in ireland were i live lol,just think hun you will be done and dusted and back home on thur with it all over you,good luck xx:thumbup:

hi hun you will have no probs with your tabs for a few months anyway until your quite restricted,talk to your doc about fluxotine you might have to break that one on a spoon and take it the thyroxine should be no prob, i take the bassetts soft and chewy Multivitamins for all the family lol,dont worry hun you will be fine,take a couple of mugs they only have plastic ones in hotel xx

your doing well pink,isin't is amazing how quickly you start to feel better after op hun,i was like you virtually no pain a few days later but it's defo worth it i cant wait to get a few fills in now lol,just to get me going,i forgot to say remember to take baggy trousers leema,cause your stomach swells a fair bit after op x:thumbup:

hi lemma well done on making a great choice to get banded you wont regret it,right here goes,no1 all taxi's are included,airport to hotel and back again,and to the hospital and back again so dont worry,have you emaile him you time of arrival,there will be a guy waiting for you in airport with your name on it,2 yes hubby can stay with you most of the day but to be honest after op you will be sleeping the rest of the day i know i did,and i couldnt be bothered to talk anyway lol,3 the night before op freddy come and explains everything to you,and you fill a form out and pay him the remainder of op if you havnt already,he will tell you a taxi will be waiting for you at 6.45 in morn,i got hotel to give me an alarm call at 6 so i could shower.4 when you arrive at hospital make sure you take your passport very important you walk in hospital and turn to the right there is a waiting room you take a number out of machine,think i pressed bottom key to get one and sit and wait your turn,when your number is called you go to desk fill forms in get your hospital bracelet then someone will show you to the ward,were you will get your room,normally two to a room,you might get a time for your op i did,the nurses give you your gown to wear and white stockings to put on and you have a meeting with dr chris who explains all again,you then go back to room to wait to be taken to theatre,be aware when they come and take you,your not going straight in to have op your in a que in theatre to get done i waited about 20 mins,after op your in recovery for bout an hour then took back to room.I personally thought it was quite painfull(but well worth it) your given good drugs,ask for more if you need them,but believe me the next day i felt a million times better. the next morn the nurses take drip out,you have a small drip comming out of your stomach wich hurts for 10 seconds comming out more weired feeling than painfull though,they then take bandage off your stomach which hurt a wee bit,you are then allowed up to get washed and dressed,forgot to say you are also took down for xray to check all is well,at bout 12 you have some Soup and Water,you normally get realeased about 1-2 back to hotel and freddy will call on you in the evening to check all is ok.ps i asked for a pre med to calm my nerves before op good luck hun if you want to know anything else just ask:thumbup:

claire that is excellent you should be proud,it's a great felling knowing it wont come back on aswell,and your so organised lol.sussie i dont know what to say,maybe one of the others might post a comment to help,if i was that concerned i would prob book an xray and get it checked hope you ger it resolved x:bored:
