Surgerical glue covering incision sites?
Glue is the technique that scars the least.. Leave it alone and it comes off when the time is right. Could be a few days to a few weeks.

Legs swelling in heat
If you have a history of blood clots and you have swelling in your legs you need to contact your dr ASAP. This could mean you have a blockage due to clotting in the lower extremities. OR.. It could be nothing other then the heat.. But your dr needs to be contacted

Post-OP Follow-Up in the USA
Wellstar has to see you if you are their patient .. They aren't treating your surgery. I must be missing something. But if they are an insurance company/group ...they can say no to paying for anything, but I don't think they can refuse you treatment. Are they saying that patients who are immigrants and had surgery outside of the states are not treatable in their facility also? If its a facility, and tells you they won't treat you they should have their ethics check. (You don't need a bariatric surgeon for follow up). My PCP is great with my follow up. At the many times I had complications with my band and had to be recommended to a bariatric specialist they everyone for me, rehardless of where my surgery was done. I believe it's a law.

11 months out picture of face before and now
Huge difference! It's right.. You don't see it because you critique yourself on a dily basis. I've lost over 40 pounds and no one has said a word to me. You are looking great and I see a big difference

Hero Worship?
I totally understand what you're saying. That's why although I wholeheartedly recommend my surgeon I don't not recommend any other MX surgeon (except one, but that's another story not for here) BUT I do recommend my Cordinator with beyond the highest of standards for MX Cordinators. No hero worshiping, just first hand knowledge of many many Cordinators.

My love affair with my band is ending
I too was truly in love with my band. I couldn't imagine my life going back to fatland. I love my sleeve. I can eat everything I couldn't with the band and that means healthy. Only things I could eat with the band were milk shakes and ice cream. Everything else came back up. I was always severely anemic with the band The sleeve changed my life and I've never been healthier ...ever

Forum Social Groups
That's not nice.. I want my ass in there! Groups on this forum.. Some are set to private so you can't comment or even ask questions. Seems like another "mean girl" club to me. I don't want to have " join" every little group, so I was just wondering why someone has to join in order to participate
