Rylynne

I was banded in Sept 2012. In July 2014 I had an episode and was hospitalized and since that time I have and numbness, fatigue and burning in my left arm and leg and when really bad extends to my right side. I have been tested for Lyme twice, two sets of MRIs, CAT scan and blood tests and I have no answers. Doctors chalk it up to being in my head...... Wondering if anyone has had similar symptoms and if they have received a diagnosis. I have young kids and cannot keep up with them. This has been going on for almost two years. I am frustrated and desperately need answers. Rylynne Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

That is ridiculous. I called the clinic where I had it done and spoke to a nurse. Right away she said that the band could not be causing the problems. I insisted on speaking with the doctor and was advised that he could call me next Friday. I mentioned silicone toxicity and the nurse dismissed it quite quickly. I am not so sure. I am going to make an appointment with a homeopath to see if they can do other blood test. Mine initially started when the doctors thought I had a heart attack. Except for the pet scan I have had the same tests and my family doctor keeps saying that it is in my head and has prescribed various depression medications and nothing has worked. I am not depressed I am very frustrated. . Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App
