I know exactly how you feel, i had lapband done, and did farely well, not as good as the doctorwanted me to, and his attitude drove me crazy, very mean and rude, and it was a 3hour drive to get to him so i quit going,, and then when a local doctor started doing banding i was to nervous to call and see if they would adjust other doctors bands, so i started eating soft foods because of the heartburn was so bad, and started gaining, well i broke down and called the local doctor, he did a scope to make sure that everything was ok, well i had an ulcer and a hernia at the top of the band, he took all the fluid out and now we are starting all over, sure hope it works and i can start the weight loss again and more, hang in there and hope things turn around for your too, happy holidays, tahoelady
