Kat1215 0 Posted April 6, 2006 I was banded on 3/13/06 and I am trying to find some others in my area. I'm hoping to find out if there are any nearby support groups. There was a post on Dr. Spivak's website that said there was a meeting at San Jacinto Hospital the first Tuesday of every month. I went over to check it out this past Tuesday and the meeting was no longer there. I don't know if the group doesn't meet any more or if they just meet somewhere else. I haven't told anyone about my surgery except my husband and daughters. It would be great to know some others close by that I could share experiences with.

stelis2 0 Posted April 8, 2006 Hi Kat1215, My name is Lisa and I live in Baytown. I was banded 3-29-06 by Dr. Spivak also. I haven't researched the local support group, but feel certain my Primary Physician would know as she works with Lap Band fills and probably stays in touch with any schedulels concerning patients meetings. If I find out Monday, I will post back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stelis2 0 Posted April 11, 2006 Kat1215, I was not able to find out if there are any meetings going on for banders at SJM Hospital. No one seems to know. Let me know if you hear of anything. Stelis2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
