    rebanding after erosion?

    I was given the option to rebrand or gastric bypass after erosion with open gi bleeding. I love the band but personally grid bypass wasn't the scary thing I was told it was, actually saved my life! I' blve most do well with then band but pray those who don't consider it bc I woke up with color I haven't had in years.

    Excess mucous

    I will order hot tea with my meal out the hot tea (without caffeine if they have it) sip that before eating. It unplugs mucus and relaxes muscles

    Remember why you did this and post it everywhere. You could stall weight loss for a month and still be ok so just follow the doctors instructions and know it gets better

    On waiting list for band removal

    I had an erosion with gi bleed at 5 years postoperative. All I wanted is removal and was told that was not an option due to the scares under the band. I had a revision to gastric bypass, which scared me. I woke up a new person and have not vomited or had pain in 4 weeks

    Hey guys I'm 26 and 5 years into the weight loss surgery journey.. If u ever have questions let me know!
  9. Yes I had Lapband in 08 and have had am erosion so band needs to come out. Dr Alexander told me to not out it back in so his team recommended bypass. I was hesitant until he showed me the complication reports where the band is at the same risk level as Lapband. Dr Alexander was the best surgeon I ,et as I tried 3 or four and he just knew the most. When I consulted with him he sat solely with me for two hours. he listened and asked about all aspects of the band and then what to do from then on. I had a choice between sleeve and bypass and he stated sleeve is great but because they don't have alot of long term surgery results in sleeve for a revision bypass is best

    Greens

    I tried this product that is called Greens and is 8 servings of veggies and fruits in one scoop which is less than a teaspoon! I was shocked that I feel so much more energy during the day and my face is now clear. I went through the containers before I started selling it and now I'm hooked!! Jessicadavis123.myitworks.com
