I'm a few hours away, had mine last week....in Bakersfield. I haven't had heartburn, I actually haven't had any since surgery and I'm loving it, that was a major concern for me going in.

Lucky, I've never suffered from heartburn, until now.. Yuk, no bueno.

I'm glad you liked him. He did my lapband on 07 and never believed me when I told him it slipped 3 days later. He removed my gall bladder a few months ago and FINALLY confirmed that it had slipped.
