Recommended Posts

hello Friends-

I may be faced with a big move, i was just banded in March of 2011 and may be moving south to Hilton Head Island, South Carolina.

Also my possible new employer does not give health insurance BUT does give 3000 towards it.

So my question is 2 fold

1. Has anybody had any good or bad with the " Fill centers" i see there is one right on HHI wich would be helpfull. I will be talking more to my DR once i know more and see what they have to say, but in t he meatime i would like some feed back from fellow banders.

How bad is it with OUT insurance???? i think i can get health insurance on my own with the $ they give me, Ehealthinsurance or something??

2. Anybody near HHI or Savanah GA, that has been banded and know of a good Dr ?

now being banded things like moving are a little bit more of a challange, =)

im really at the begining stages so not to many people know yet, so i ask my fellow lap banders for help first =)

Hi...I used the Fill Center USA in California and am extremely happy with the service I received. Was costly for my first visit, but was well worth it.....I didn't use one of their local offices (drove about 1 1/2 hrs away) because I wanted to be filled by fluoro but I know if I needed an unfill there are offices locally that can do the job. Was a little skeptical when I drove up to the office (a back pain drs office) but she was fantastic, knew what she was doing, took her time, did a great job....worth trying in SC if you don't know someone who can recommend a good dr for you....Good luck!

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
