    Hi from Ireland!

    Hi Magna sorry to hear you are not happy with your band, are you getting fills and where? Don't give up hope. I've had a leak and went over to Paris and Jerome put in a new band. I'm loosing very slowly but I'm happy now. I was like you very frustrated, all the fills and no restriction. I couldn't understand why everyone else was losing weight and i wasn't. How much have in your band? you probably just need a good fill. Pm me if you want to talk, but don't give up on the band yet. LOVE ROE

    Hi from Ireland!

    Hi Emerald Jerome doesn't do fills in Ireland. You need to go to Paris for that, my mistake. The Belgian nurses come over every month to do fills in Dublin. Their contact no is 00447872963503 speak to Julie tosh there, good luck.

    Hi from Ireland!

    Hi Everyone. Got back from Paris and Jerome, what a guy. I didn't only get my band changed to the newest one on the market, he managed to pick me up from the bus and bring me on a sight seeing tour. This guy has more charisma in his little finger than all the surgeons in Ireland put together. I would strongly recommend him to anyone thinking of having the band done. So its almost a month since I had it done and I'm 13 lbs down I cant believe it. I was banded for the first time in acs just 12 months ago and had only lost 14 lbs for the whole year, so you can imagine how thrilled I am, and Paris is only a hour and ten mins from Dublin,over and back the same day. Glad Flirty lass you are happy and doing well hope you have great restriction and the pounds start dropping. I didn't see the article on BBC, wish I had, but I would still go and have it done again. TERRY hows it going you still got great restriction, like I said I'm doing great just loosing the way I want steady and slow. Have you lost much since our trip to Paris? looking forward to seeing you soon again. Gerri: you are doing amazing keep it up. Lil: good to hear from you, is wella123 back yet? We will talk soon . Coco: glad your back from the hols and you almost at your goal, way to go. Keep giving advise there's a lot of us struggling and really appreciate your words of wisdom. Lollkeen. I'm afraid we've all been down this road with acs. There's not much we can do we've been ripped off by them. You can either let it fester or just cut your losses, and get on with the rest of your life. I payed 10k as well, just 12 Mt's ago and had the bloody thing ripped out a month ago. Find your self a good fill doc, don't be angry with the band its there to help you, so chin up and start loosing those pounds. Ailbe isn't it great to see the sizes dropping it will be a long time till I need to buy clothes. I have them from a size 16 to 28 and I have a Sister that is a dab hand with the machine. Maybe that's the way to go, find a dress maker to take in your clothes, it would be a lot cheaper than buying new ones. Angie: hows it going I see by your weight loss we are loosing about the same, we were banded about the same time, I was the 15 of Sep keep up the good work and keep posting. I better stop now this is longer than I thought it would be, talk soon love Roe

    Hi from Ireland!

    Hi Terry.This is Jeromes address jerome@manuceau.net What makes you think your band has slipped. From what I know from other cases you would be very sick, and not able to keep anything down. It sounds like you are still wide open, you may have a leak. That's what happened to me. I was going to Dublin for fills every month, and nothing was happening then I went to Jerome to have a look, and he told me I had no fluid in there, it was a big shock. I'm so glad he is the one going to fix it. Ill be heading of Monday week cant wait. If you need any more information pm me. Magner how are you doing haven't heard from you in a while were you back up this month for a fill. I tried to pm you but it wont allow me in let us know how you are doing your not alone. Love Roe

    Hi from Ireland!

    Angie 324 the address is 30 Pembrook street. Not sure if its upper, its a short street anyway. GOOD LUCK with your consultation Hi Flirty lass. Ya that was me sitting across the round table from you, good luck 2 moro. We will be waiting to hear from you. Don't know how much my band is going to cost, it depends where the leak is. it may have to be changed, it will depend on the x ray. Will let you all know when I get back. DEBB how is restriction going any joy since last time we spoke. Cant wait for Wella to get back. She always has the right answer. Now that the summer is over and kids are back to school we all need to get posting again. There are a lot of new people on here that need support and information, and where better to get it from, we have some very wise long term banders lurking here. So please come and talk to us, we all need to hear from you. LOVE ROE

    Hi everyone. Hope you are having a great summer, and watching those pounds going down. I'm still not getting anywhere, but I'm off to see Chris or Fred on the 7/8 looking forward to that. Hasn't the weather been terrible, I feel so sorry for the kids, and me as well its so hard to keep them entertained. Thanks for the no for Ms Mc Clean Coco looks like they are still up to their tricks. I haven't called yet, but I will this week. talk to you all soon. ps. Thanks again Alure.

    Hi from Ireland!

    Hi all I've been off for a while. Broad band was down in my area, just got it back on Sunday. God how I missed it I felt lost not to be in touch with the the band world was frustrating. Anyway I'm off to see Fred on wed so excited. Gerri I think Ill cut my losses with acs, they are not worth the hassle. Belfast is not an option I would have to take a 2hr bus to Dublin & a 3hr trip to Belfast. I would have to stay over a very expensive fill if I got one. Is anybody meeting in Larry Murphy's on Wed my app is 11.30 I could meet after that.

    Hi from Ireland!

    Hi guys I had a call from Fredrick this morning at 9am. He wanted to know how things were going with my band, said he would be in Dublin every month if we needed fills. He says ACS have not changed hands, its still the same company just changed names. His fills are 120 euro,and if its filled to tight they will fly back next day to defill. Has anyone else got a call from him. love ROE

    Hi from Ireland!

    Hi everyone. Damienne well done on the band the worst is over now.:scared2: Ailbe sorry to hear about your troubles. Chin up,he d'osnt deserve someone as nice as you. Theres lots of fish waiting to be caught out there ,land yourself a big one.:confused_smile: Gerri yes im still waiting and waiting it's a joke, we just can't seem to get a good run at it .:drool: Elsie I would have said a protien problem as well, but you seem to have ruled that out. Im sure someone will come up with an answer on this site for you, please God sooner than later. Siepie a support group is a great idea, getting people tog is another thing. I know for myself I'm always trying to catch my tail I never seem to have enough time to do anything, but a meet up this summer would be lovely. Mol. Hope you are doing good. Lil havn't heard from you in a while is everything ok:confused:, drop in soon. Gilly realy glad you got some help. Ill be waiting to hear how you get on in Loughlinstown hosp. Let us know. LOVE ROE
