Janie, who was banded in Perth, is having trouble; see her thread at http://lapbandtalk.com/showthread.php?t=3418

Any suggestions on someone she could see in W.A. (or elsewhere) for a second opinion?

Hiya all of you out there, re my previous posts, well today I bit the bullet and went to see my G.P. she has given me a referral to see another surgeon regarding fills, I did not see the point of seeing my original surgeon as he had told me there would be no fills, so tomorrow I will ring for an appointment with the new guy,

Excellent, Janie! Good luck, and congratulations for taking action. Let us know about your meeting with the new guy.

Hi Janie, I am from Melbourne Australia, good to see another aussie here :banana . I dont know any doctors in WA but I do go on an aussie site for lap-banders, here is a link for you http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/ozband/messages

Hey Wheeler, I have an appointment with another Dr, I am scared and excited, scared in case he chucks me out of his surgery and tells me to get on with it, and excited because hopefully I am going to get some fills !!

I have been on the other site you mentioned. I wish I had access to the net before I had my surgery last year, I would have been better prepared.

See ya Janie
