I was banded on Nov. 5, and yesterday wad the first day where I did not have any pain whatsoever. Everyone heals differently.

You're right, that is quite a PAIN!!! I would be really upset about that too!! When you when you went to the new surgeon, did your insurance accept the 6 months of supervised diet with Bagan's office? Congrats on the 58 lbs though! I do have a question for you, how long were you in pain after the surgery? I'm a week out and I'm still in a bit of pain, it's MUCH better than it was for sure, but there's still a bit of discomfort.

Thanks for the quick response! I don't know about the insurance issues because I am a self-pay. My insurance has a no weight loss coverage clause, so I didn't even try, but honestly, it's fine for me, because I didn't want to jump through the 6 months of hoops that the insurance companies make you go through. Thanks again! Good luck to you as well!

I'm curious what issues you had with Dr. Bagan's staff?

I had Matthew Bagan do my surgery on 11/5. I love him and I love his staff. Sandy is great and always answers my questions quickly. It's a bit of a hike for me, I am in East Fort Myers, but I like them so much that it was worth it.

Hi I was banded on Nov 5, still have some discomfort but everyday is better than the last.
