  1. Things went real bad!!

    tallywag replied to redsaffron's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
    My wife nearly died as well. I feel for you. The doctor used a spring sutre to fsten the ban in place and it caused a hole and leak. She became septic and had the band removed in emergency surgery. She developed phnemonia on ventilator and also a staff infection. She was in icu for 6 weeks and rehab for another 3 weeks. All this and no band, still overweight... We have a lawyer for mal practice.

  2. Missouri Doctors?
