My Doctor,,,,, Dr. Kochacharov (hes bulgarian) He is the BEST I had Lap band surgery almost 3 weeks ago. I was home the day after surgery, and thruthfully I never felt pain. He is in Findlay,Ohio at Bariactric Solutions they are great people there. I would recommend them 200%

I'm new to this board, I have posted once before, everyone is just great here. This was a BIG decision for me, but the right one. My surgery date is June 14th, I'm soooo very excited:D , but sooooo very scared all at the same time. I have never had any kind of surgery before, this is all new to me.Congradulations to everyones weight loss. Kelly Champ

Thank you for everyones support, I never thought the lap-band was for me, because I always thougt it was for smaller (chubby) people, not me:rolleyes: , But my surgeon says it would be the best thing for me,especially when I told him I wanted a baby in a few years.:confused:

HI its Kelly Again Saturday morning I went out to get my mail,,,,,,in it was a letter from EBMC (my insurance) the words i thought i would never see,,,We approve the laproscopic lapband surgery as we see it medically needed,,,,OMG i just stopped, to make sure my eyes weren't playing with me.SO my surgeon wants to do next month,,,,but I have to do it in June so i can get an approved leave of absense from work,,,,so now I really need SUPPORT,,,,, any would be greatly appreciated

Hi my name is Kelly this is my very first post:clap2: . I have been researching WLS for years. I'm 31 happily married (no children).I know that I want WLS and always thought the open RNY was what I wanted, But yesterday I met with my surgeon for the first time, I let him know all about me,and I let him know that in the future I want children,he instantly stopped talking about the RNY and with his professinal opinion told me I should have the Lapraroscopic Adjustable Lap Band, :eek: I never thought that was an option for me, so now I'm just doing as much research about this as I can, and truthfully so far it sounds sooooooo much safer and all around better than the RNY, any help with my research would be greatly appreciated. :help: Thank you
