  1. Someone please read this

    JILLIEMC68 replied to Shey Ronix's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
    So sorry you are having these issues. I am having my lap band removed in a couple of weeks. I discovered with an endoscopy that I have Barrett’s Esophagus and the band must be removed as it causes damage. I had all fill removed almost 10 years ago and I don’t have symptoms of reflux but it was still happening without symptoms. Be sure to monitor your esophagus as there could be damage that can lead to cancer.

  2. Plastic surgeon in Houston TX?

    Dr. Christopher Patronella is very good. He did my full body lift a few years ago. He is a great surgeon.

  3. No one talks about. To much weightloss

    I hope you were able to find some answers since you posted here. I recommend that you do not wait and get the scope. I recently had a scope and I have Barrett’s Esophagus. I am having the band removed in a couple of weeks. Heartburn is a sign that something is wrong. It erodes the esophagus and stomach.
