Francesca 5 Posted November 2, 2005 :cry Hi everyone, I just wanted to give everyone an update on my band removal. I talked to my surgeon here where I live, and he has agreed to take my band out.. well, so far so good.. he is going to have my records faxed to him and then he will decide if he can do it.. I am thrilled about this.. and my insurance will cover the surgery. yahooooooooo Don't get me wrong, I am very bummed about this whole band erosion thing, but I am glad to be saving thousands of dollars... Well, thanks again for everyone's support!!! EROSION IS HELL ON EARTH !!! For no particular reason, my husband has asked me to add this photo to my post: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oh 2 Be Free 0 Posted November 2, 2005 I am sorry to hear about your erosion and my prayers are with you. On a lighter note... Can you ask hubby if he has a picture of the Dolphin's helmet instead... it's much more attractive to the eye. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
