No one has said that. I think people are just questioning because you haven't really given the complete story. Why is the the doctors fault? How do you know it's the doctor's fault? How do you know it was an "old band" and what do you mean by that? If it was a slip, couldn't it be just that, a slip and no one's fault? We are just trying to get a better understanding of the situation and why you feel this was the surgeons fault. If it was a slip and needed revision, yes I would go back to my surgeon. We aren't trying to say you are wrong for your feelings utah, we just need more info. Good luck to you.

I believe Utahband ( who is my friend) is not expressing herself clearly. The band was not OLD meaning --- used band, rusty band or anything related to that. It was simply NOT the new INAMED band that was showed to her prior to surgery, when the band was discussed. The band that was placed was a very large band, one that is not manufactured by INAMED any longer. It was the largest band and it slipped probably due to the huge size on somebody that is about 5'1'' and 168 lbs on the day of surgery ( do not ask me why someone with a 33 of BMI decides to have a Lap Band)... I believe Utahband is not hurting emotionally only because of the complications but because of having the terrible feeling of having to have another procedure a few weeks after the first one in addition to having to find out that the band was not the band she was told she would get at the time of the medical assessment. I hope I am assisting her to express herself a little better. To end all this.. Utah is doing well now, she is still struggling with the feelings of having a band ( we all know how the first weeks go), feeling extra tired for being on very little or nothing for quite a while. I hope this helps.

Not to nit pick but some one's actual height and weight does not have a lot to do with what size band they get from what I understand.

Its the size of their Anatomy inside is what determines the size of the band used. Granted it sounds like this doc used a band that was too big which can happen but "outward" appearance has nothing to do with it .

And we wonder why Huacuz patients seem to have so many more problems than others! Maybe this is one of the reasons. ;o) (One of the many reasons!)

I am one of his MANY patients who have NEVER had a problem. Nor have any of the patients (friends and family) I have recommended to him.

Consider yourself lucky. Sadly, many others aren't quite as fortunate.

The way I look at it is: if the world-wide rate for a complication is something like 2% and a surgeon has 2, 3 even 5x the normal rate, that's still 90% of his patients that don't experience that complication. Therefore, the fact that a doctor has patients who haven't had complications, doesn't mean he's a good doctor.

Yes, all doctors have patients who get complications and all doctors have patients who don't get complications. But wouldn't you rather go to a doctor with a 2% complication rate over one with a 10% complication rate? I know I would.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
