Yes, he numbed me and no he didn't have any trouble finding the port. It went really quick.

Yes, I have had one fill so far and one scheduled for this Thursday.

How much do you have to pay? I would go with him again.

I was nervous with the previous comments but my experience has been good. I had scar tissue from some previous abdominal surgeries. He told me he might not be able to get the band in because of it, but he was able to remove the scar tissue and place the band. I have had one fill so far. I haven't had any negative issues. What insurance do you have?

The Jesus Christ of the Bible is not the same as the Jesus Christ of the Book of Mormon. The Jesus Christ of the Bible is the son of God. The Jesus Christ in the Book of Mormon is the brother of satan and a spirit child of God and one of his wives. Also, the God of the Bible is omnipotent and allpower and not a physical being. Also, Mormons get upset that they are not included as Christians. However, I, as a Christian, would be excluded in a Mormon group.

No, my surgery will be June 14. How long ago was yours? What did you think of Dr. Zainabadi?

The hospital said that I could have it done outpatient there. My insurance says if there are any complications and I need to stay longer, I will be able to.

I have been approved for lap band! My dr. Requested inpatient and my insurance approved me for outpatient. I'm fine with outpatient but my doctor's office said they have to call the hospital and see if I can be outpatient. Shouldn't they know this already? Aren't most people outpatient for lap band?

Has anyone been banded by Dr. Zainabadi at Riverside Medical Clinic?

Wow, April 27 is coming up! I had this big mixup with the whole insurance process because I wasn't in the system at blue cross. I changed in January. Anyway, they're supposed to have an answer for me by wednesday. That's the same day your having your surgery! Hope everything goes well!

Well, were you approved?

I am waiting too. Everything was faxed 3/25. We can wait together.....

Hi Missy, I have kind of a crazy question. Why did you have to wait a week to drink coffee?
