Hi, I have no idea if you are still interested in a support group, as your post was awhile back; however, I too, am a patient of Dr. Shayani, and have been struggling a great deal since I was banded last March. I finally forced myself to attempt to stop struggling alone and have been navigating this site in search of some support, recommendations, wisdom, etc...I also live in the south suburbs, and would certainly appreciate any info. you can share regarding local support groups, as I feel trying to navigate this alone has proved quite unsuccessful...thank you for any insight you can offer!

I'm also a patient if Dr. Shayani. I was very disappointed when Tina left St. James, but she has reunited with Dr. Shayani at Adventist hospital in Bolingbrook.

      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.
