Hey there. I live a little south...near St Louis.

My Sis-inlaw just had the surgery. She's from your area. What surgeon did you use? She went out of state, but is looking for a fill doc.

I can't believe they got rid of the Chief!

Hey there! So glad to see a reply. I was banded by Sid Rohrscheib in Clinton Illinois. His office and staff are great and the other doctor that works with him actually was banded himself. Your sis should check him out.

Hi Nannyjh,

I'm still working on getting mine to work too. This the info that may help you.

How to post a ticker from our sister site TickerFactory.com?

If you wish to use tickers from our sister site TickerFactory.com in your signature or your post follow the following procedure:

* Configure your ticker on TickerFactory.com

* On the last page, copy the text in the box labeled bbCode. For Windows users, select the whole text and press the Ctrl and C keys simultaneously.

* Go to the circles (in your profile - Menu Main/Options or in a post) and paste the bbCode that you copied from the TickerFactory.com site. For Windows users, just press the Ctrl and V keys simultaneously.

* Submit your profile or your post.

Hee Nannyjh,

It looks like you got your ticker thing going. I guess I will see if mine is working when I send you this massage.

By the way I just called Dr. Rohrscheibs office about doing fills.

hi Nannyjh,

Yes I called Dr. Rohrscheibs office about doing fills. You have to pay 500.00

for a signup fee, then 80.00 for every fill after that.I taked to someone at his office today and she was very nice, and helpful.

Oh you think you have made mistakes using this site.....the first time I tried to reply to something.....I started a thread instead of replying. It worked out fine though I was able to meet a few nice people on line.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
