    WLS (the UKs number 1 aftercare providerby the way)don't do anything 'wrong' only right, as their many now slimline happy customers can vouch for. I won't tell anyone to go to any fill provider, (I do know of some stories of certain 'providers' going wrong too, but I'm not scare mongering on here or slagging any of them off).it's up to the individual who they go to. Just make sure you have a good 15 mins of advice with them before your fill, and can reach them for emergencies immediately on 24 hrs helpline. That they are well insured, experienced and professional. Good luck to everybody whoever you use. We're all after the same results, and can feel free to share our experiences on this forum

    Hi everyone, wondering if someone could help me please. I haven't been able to eat a thing since Thursday morning and i'm not even hungry! I get constant acid reflux though and I can hear a sort of gurgling noise now and again, theres also a slight ache at my breastbone. Do you think I have food stuck or my band has slipped? I am so worried I can just manage to drink Water and I had some milkshake last night just to give me some calories but I have to force myself because I feel full. Has anyone experienced this?
    Thanks xx

    You go with what your comfortable with, I would have been worried going on my own to another country too esp with other medical problems.. I must say I would highly recommend dr chris, he's highly experienced and regarded. But I completely understand why you've chose the UK.. And at the end of the day.. You're having same op.don't feel guilty. Youve got an exciting journey to go on! Good luck! X
