  1. HI, I agree you should go through the steps, I started in may, my insurance covered it and I still took about 6 months just to complete all the steps. Flies by! Good luck!
  2. HI Ugagirl, Thanks, I did make sure I had the whole discussion with my surgeon because of my fear of what the narcotics might do and he said that ibruprofen would be ok. Good looking out. Thanks Good luck!
  3. Hey Julie, I live in Boston road area of Springfield right now near eastfield mall. What part of Texas are you in? I am from there and moved here when I was a teen, San Antonio, still have lots of family there. I grew up in Chicopee here through high school and stuff. Anyhow Good luck to all!
  4. Hello, I would say that it was less than a week for them to get back to me I remember thinking it was fast. You should call they are very friendly and did not make me feel like a pest. Good Luck!
  5. Hey There! I was just banded last Thursday and I had a fine experience, I was a little uncomfortable for a fews days after but never really in severe pain. I never even used the narcotics they gave me because I have a weak stomach for them and was too afraid of puking. I just used ibuprofen and felt fine. I can barely feel anything now. BE strong and look forward to your new lifestyle! Good luck! SUE :confused:
  6. Hey there! I just had mine done on 1/31 by Dr. Haag, no complaints at all, he actually also did my gal bladder a couple of years ago very nice Dr. & staff. Feeling pretty good and looking forward! :confused:
