corinna 0 Posted December 13, 2010 Hi everyone, im from hervey bay, queensland australia . Is there any fellow aussies on here?? Im on a semi urgent waiting list for lap banding. I have has liver tumors removed and a liver resection but my specialist has encouraged me to have lap banding to take the extra pressure off my liver, i also have PCOS so the weight loss from the banding will help alleviate that too. I will need to have further liver surgery after the banding once my body is in a better condition to handle a second liver resection to remove the remaining tumors. Is there anyone recently banded or are waiting on theirs too?.. I would be interested to chat to people who have had the surgery and hear the highs and lows. Im guessing everyones experiences are different and would love to hear it from different views. After the banding, whats it like with eating and such, And what is involved in the "FILLS" and most importantly does it hurt??..lol WHats everyones weight loss so far and in what time frame? Has anyone been banded @ Royal Brisbane, My Specialist is Dr Nathanson, He is the Dr suggesting being banded and also was my surgeon for my liver resection, ( which he did a wonderful job, i was actually up and walking albeit gingerly 24 hours later after major surgery, so thats a credit to him) Gosh i have lots of questions dont i..lol Anyway would love to hear from everyone, add me on fb if you would like to chat Cheers, Corinna Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
