  1. Hi I just need some help. I had the lap band done on August 2 & 3, 2006. I have lost 35 pounds so far. But my new problem is I have been getting very dizzy when ever I get up out of bed or from a chair. I have blacked out a couple of times. Could someone please help me, and tell me what is happening to me. Thanks in advance for all your support and help.
  2. Hello everybody, Has anyone in the Houston area ever used Dr. Dexter Turnquest? I went for my first appointment back in June.on the 8. Talked to him he seems really nice. Now just waiting on Insurance. If anyone could tell me something about him I would really appreciate it.:clap2: Thanks in advance for all your help.
  3. Hi Everyone, I'm new at this. I have been reading the site a lot but never had the nerve to write. Well I'm hoping to be banded soon. I'm waiting on Insurance. Got approve first time for Dr. Speigel in March and surgery was sit for May 30, 2006 and on May 6, Dr. Speigel nurse called and told me that they no longer took my insurance. So I was all upset so I called my insurance UHC and ask them to refer me to someone and they gave me a list of Drs. to use. So I called one of them made my appointment done all of the test. Sent me to a cardiologist went through weeks of test. Got the letter from the cardio. saying I was cleared for surgery. Waited about 3 more weeks and then the second Dr. office calls me and says sorry we don't take UHC anymore. I was so messed up I just wanted to quit! But I am trying one more time. I hopefully have found a doctor who is going to take my ins. and Now I am just waiting again on my insurance for another approval. Please Keep me in your thoughts!! I need all I can get. Thanks in advance for your thoughts and prayers!!!:help:
