Anyone know of Dr De Bruyne Chris

[High Anxiety 0]

Hi - wish I'd known about the 'package' - if it was offered to me before I booked, I must have missed it. Anyway, a couple of questions: Does the Doc send you home with any pain relief meds - if not, what is recommended, something soluable in Water like Solpadine? Also, what about multi-vitamins? Has anyone found a good liquid Vitamin? Thanks

Also, Peeps, Boots has slimfast on offer at 3 for 2, so I stocked up on shakes for after my op

Hey Homecare, it's me who has the 6 month package, i've got an ECFS fill on the 11th Jun then am going over to WLS 6 month package on the 23 Jun. It was Coleen who booked it for me and i've paid a deposit so don't know why you got given duff info! x

Hi Teebird I phoned her back and she says it is now new company policy not to offer new bandsters the 6 month deal. as of the 2nd of June, however she is going to ask her superior if I can get it since I am only couple of days out. J:crying:

Hi homecare the number is 0800 7879 029.It should be coleen that answers just tell her you want the package to start a month too six weeks after your op.

I phoned Coleen again and she says it is now new company policy not to offer new bandsters the 6 month package but she will do her best and ask her boss if I can have it. Thanks for all you help Bobo. J x:rolleyes2:

Hi high anxiety the hospital give you soluble painkillers to take home with you also anti sickness tablets, i tried the painkillers in apple juice and water but couldnt drink them, they were disgusting so i just stuck to the nurofen melts which i though worked really well.. i only needed painkillers for a couple of days x

I might cancel my 6 month package for this reason: I've just received the paperwork from WLS and it seems all a bit expensive when i may not need it. Am i right in thinking that the initial assessment of £120 with WLS is not included in the 6 month package of £349? That's the way i read the paperwork today. Can anyone shed any light please. It all seems like a lot of money when i already paying for the first fill with Frederick, second fill with initial assessment and then if i only need 3 fills, i've only got one fill out of that £349 package!

Does anyone have any advice for me? Do you think i should cancel and do them every 2 weeks paying as i go along?

Thanks, T x

Are you sure its £120 for initial assessment. When I spoke to Coleen today she said if I opted to have fills only it would be £120 for first fill and then £85 thereafter but they are not too keen on giving new bandsters this service? I was definately under the impression the £350 was all inclusive you must find out and let us all know. J x:eek:

No t bird you do not have to pay an extra £120 .The £120 is if you are doing indavigal fills you would get the assessment and a fill then after that you would pay £85 each fill after that.All you have to pay for the package is£349.
