I know it is rare for a leak 1 out of 100 ? But this is what scares me most about the operation. Therefore this is the reason for my questions ???? What happens if I had a leak when I left the hospital in Europe and was at home in the UK ? Would I go to my local NHS hospital ? Is there a danger after the first 6 weeks of a leak ? How long approx does it take for stomach tissue to cover the staples and then is it safe from leaks ?

Lulu-lulu Who are you having your surgery with ? Let me see if I can find some nice positive feedback for you ? Clinic ? Surgeon ?

Hi RosieCheeks What clinic are you having it done in Prague and what was the price if you don't mind me asking ? What you have just messaged is sooooo true ! I wish you were around me !!! You have such a positive attitude !

Thank you Sam and I will keep that in mind !!! This is brilliant this forum thing ! I love your attitude RosieCheeks ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hi Sam Did you have yours done by Chris De Bryne ?

Hi everyone Good luck with your Surgery LuLu -lulu !!! I am looking at having surgery done in Europe too ! But I have not made my mind up with who yet. I have a particular interest in Brussels Dr Chris De Bryne and Prague but not sure of the surgeons yet ?? The price in Prague is good and seems good and less waiting so is looking favourable. Please everyone I would be glad of any feedback from you all ! Thanks

Hi I am pre surgery so yes I am on the wrong posts, but just wanted to know a few home truths I watched a video on you tube of a ladies experience and it has given me the heeby jeebies !!! (Scared me ) What sort of after effects should I expect ? Or was this ladies an exceptional circumstance ! Please I need to know !!!!

Thank you Tobysgirl and Valentina for your kind replies ! It does seem that everyone has different experiences. It's the people who have the complications! I need to work out what the percentage is ? It does seem to be quite a lot ? I am glad as you say this video experience is quite rare. I will carry on awaiting replies and people's experiences before I take the plunge. Thank you x

I have been researching clinics in Europe and keep going round and around in circles ! Has anyone got experience of clinics in Belguim, Brussels or Prague for gastric sleeve operation. I would be happy to listen to people's experiences and reviews on surgeons and prices please help ????

I am contemplating surgery with Dr Chris de Bryne in Brussels. I have put it off once and need all the encouragement I can get !

Please help me ? I am considering having the gastric sleeve op. I am overweight at 5"4inches I weigh 13.5 stone. I know this is obese but I can lose the weight. The only problem being as soon as I lose it I put it back on as I have to take steroids quite regular and these bloat me and increase my appetite. This leaves me yo yo dieting which gets me down as I am mostly overweight. I am thinking the sleeve would keep the weight off me and may even help my asthma but is it a big step to take ? Please tell me your thoughts and experience on this ???

Thank you all for your kind replies ! Miss Mac you said you put weight on with your medication was that after you had your sleeve operation ?

Hi all I am happy to see you proceeding with your op. I had mine for the 13 th January but I pulled out as I felt I had not give myself enough time to prepare for this. Especially being as it was the Xmas and New Year period which is mayhem by itself. I have not done any research so want to do it now and then book it. But I would be most happy if you all shared your experiences with me please.
