The First Time I Have Found Anyone To Talk About Lapbands!



Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone,

I was banded almost a year and a half ago and have felt soooo alone!

Oh my gosh, I hope to find some kindred souls to share with!

I have lost 50 lbs and have 50 more to go!

Anyone out there??

:)

Oh Wow! :)

I can't get over that anyone answered so quickly! :)

I don't know how to respond and chat individually ("NOT" a natural on the computer)...but I will figure it out! I would sure love to talk to you...I have been struggling and there is very little I can do but wait to see my surgeon. I live near Montreal and we don't have any connection with any "groups" as such. I will be back later and try to figure out how to "chat". I have to go now...but to the everyone who responded to my first reach out e-mail: THANK YOU!!!!! :)

I will be back later!

I did not know there was an actual "chat room"! I have exclusively used the IPhone app since i signed up and it does not have that option. I will have to get on the computer soon and check it out.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
