If you feel you need a hospital go to one. Anyone! We cannot diagnose you online.

If this happened to me, I would first contact my band surgeon and get his advice. My surgeon is VERY involved in aftercare, so much so that he says to call at any hour of the day or night for any concern. My surgeon is affiliated with two hospitals in our area and he has instructed us specifically which ER we should go to. My point is that if someone is reading this and has not been banded yet, you should choose your surgeon carefully. And either way, anytime you have medical care, you should inform the care provider(s) that you have a band.

      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.
