been over weight all my life even when i was a baby I lost weight when i was pregunant with my kids but thats the only time. i lost from 221 to 182 two years ago when i had my last child. My odd question is has anyone had ibs before the lap band? i have had a problem of having bm 4 or 5 times a day i only go out of the house 1 time every 3 weeks if i can help it did have to much of a problem when i was down to 182 but once i got up to 200 it came back. finaly 4 months ago decided to go to the dr and they said it was ibs after all the test showed nothing wrong just gerd my dr said the lap band might help with the problem and aslo with the gerd. he said he didn't no much about the lap band just weight seems to be causing all my problems. thanks for any help

I had a horrible time after I had my gall bladder out. I knew where every bathroom on the south side of Chicago was. My gastro Dr. gave me Colestid which turned out to be a life saver.

Since my surgery, I have not had to take my pills once. I was taking a horse pill twice a day.

I am now super regular and normal. My surgeon says it's because I am eating healthier and cutting out all the greasy foods.

Hopefully the band will help you too.
