Hello there everyone. I was banded in October 2007 in Prague by Dr Friel. Had great success losing 61/2 stone in just over a year, despite having very little aftercare and support from the company with whom I had it done. I've had 1 fill in that time, but it didn't seem to make much difference. However now, I'm really struggling and have put on 1 stone and am getting back to my old eating habits. I've booked in for another fill next week, and am hoping that it will put me back on the straight and narrow. I'm desperate.

Are there any support groups in the Manchester area in the UK?

I just had my second fill on yesterday and I really still fill no restriction. I have heard some say that it may take 3 or 4 fills before you really feel any. Hang in here guys, I am with you!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
