Hi I just got my sleeve date for December 2nd!!!

I had a friend that had this and yes it can cause chest pain.

omg!!!! I hope you are kidding!!!!

Hi Judy, I think we have all been in the same boat that you are in at one point of our lapband. just try to take one day at a time, write down everything you eat and than go back and see what changes you can make.

I love my band too! This was one of the best decisions that I made for myself.

Hi Jill, I went to Mexico for my surgery also, that has been 3 yrs ago this month. You will most likely be there just over night. You'll be sleeping a lot. When your not sleeping you'll be walking. Good Luck!!!

I have nbo regrets. This is the best decision that i have ever done just foe me!!

I'm so sorry about your body rejecting the band, but thank God you caught it in time. Good luck with everything.....

My band slipped on May 24. I was very sick. Throwing up everything! I could not hold my head up. It was really bad. I have had my band for almost 3 years. My doctor was able to save my band. I feel great now just having to start over with the liquids and etc. Trust me if your band has slipped you will know it...Good luck to you!

I am wanting to maintain also. I don't want to lose anymore weight. I just got to get this liquids phase behind me! Good luck to you!

Hi I had a band slippage also, My stomach was twisted. I was so....sick could'nt even hold my head up. Thank God for Dr Carroll in Jackson Ms. I had surgery on the night of may 26th. Dr Carroll was able to save my band. He did a wonderful job. I went home the next day. I'm having to start all over again. I'm on liquids, did'nt remember it being this hard. Ha! Anyway I'm on the road to recovery thanks to Dr Carroll...

I have been banded since October 2006 with no complication. My band has been a real life saver. I've reached my goal and feel wonderful!!

Hi I have had my band since October 2006. I'm doing very well, no major complication. Had to have a couple of unfills from being to tight. I've lost all my weight. What can I say I LOVE MY BAND!!!

Hi Guys I'm doing ok too. A whole lot has been going on in my life. I will try to post more often

Sounds like things are going well for you. Good Luck!!!

Don't be scared, If you are doing everything right he has no reason to be mad at you. I would get him to check for a leak. If all eles fails try to find another fill doctor that you feel comfortable with. Let me know how it goes...

I have been banded for almost 2 yrs now, and i have the same symptoms. I will be going to have it checked out...

HI Don, I'm so excitied for you. It's about time!

Hi Cindy, I was also banded in Mexico two years ago next month. Dr Jose Rodriguez did mine in Acuna, Mexico. I did really well. Good Luck and welcome to Mississippi banded people!

Good luck to you! I'm so happy for you!

I have been banded since October 2006. I haven't had any complication. The band is the best decision I have ever made for myself.

Pamela, I'm so happy for you. I have been banded since October 2006. It's the best thing I have ever done!

...when you ask for a hamburger without bread! LOL

I am almost 24 months out. I still have strange noises coming from my thoart. Though my band might be to tight, but I only have 1.5cc in a 4cc band. Go figure!

How can they put 4.1cc in a 4cc band? Is'nt that too much restriction?
