I HAVE HAD MY LAP BAND FOR MANY YEARS NOW, AND HAVE NOT HAD GREAT SUCCESS.  MY BAND WAS FILLED SLOWLY OVER A SIX MONTH PERIOD.  HOWEVER, I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO KEEP IT FILLED DUE TO COMPLICATIONS.  I BELIEVE MY BAND MAY NOT BE IN PLACE PROPERLY.  THEREFORE, I HAVE EXTREME GASTRIC REFLUX.  IT HAS BEEN SO EXCESSIVE THAT I WAS UNABLE TO SLEEP AT NIGHT AND WOULD ASPIRATE IN MY SLEEP. MY BAND WAS PLACED IN OKLAHOMA.  IF ANYONE HAS A WONDERFUL SURGEON OR GASTRO IN THE TARRANT CO. AREA (WEST FORT WORTH), I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE THE NAME AND NUMBER.  I AM VERY EAGER TO GET THIS UNDER CONTROL SO THAT I CAN HAVE FULL BENEFITS OF THIS LAP BAND.  MY WEIGHT HAS SLOWLY CLIMBED TO MY PRE BAND WEIGHT.  I AM SO AFRAID THAT IT WILL CONTINUE TO CLIMB.  ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED.  THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!
