    browneyedgirl89 got a reaction from Pinkgirl1234 in EGD/Hiatal Hernia/Exclusion on Aetna   
    Do not get the lap band!!!!!!!! I wish someone would have told me this two years ago before i was banded. It is awful. Go to vertical sleeve talk and there is a forum full of lap band patients that have switched to the sleeve
    i am about to have the sleeve myself. My band has been Hell from day one!

    browneyedgirl89 got a reaction from SwissMiss in True Results-Houston   
    i was banded at true results houston on june 10 2011. I HATE my band and the nurses always piss me off. everytime i went it it seemed i had a pouch. so i would be put on a 2 week liquid diet, go back, and still had a pouch. after doing that for about 8 months i finally hit my breaking point and decided to start talking about revising to a sleeve. i have been absolutely miserable with my band, severe acid reflux, vomiting, you name it, i have it. i had all my liquid removed in november, and they sent me to dr holliss office in pearland to talk about revision. i just think it is funny though that before i got my band, they said nothing but negative things about the sleeve and bypass, yet now everyone i talk to that works at true results and dr holliss office say nothing but horrible things about the band. im like, why the hell didnt you tell me this before i got banded?? one of the PAs at TR even told me she had the band and wished she would have got the sleeve instead. its ridiculous. and it really bugs me that they never really talked about all the negative things that could happen with the band before surgery, they made it sound so easy and simple. basically, they are all full of sh99 and i advise ANYONE who has not been banded yet to run and get the sleeve!

    hey! i am 22 as well, and i will be banded on june 10th. i know how you feel, TRUST me. but just think, we are doing this at such a great time, we are young and have our whole lives ahead of us, so we are lucky to get this out of the way, rather than suffering for more years. we are going to live our twenties the way we were always meant to do so! id love to keep in touch, both of you, message me whenever!
