  1. carrie, I am not getting the surgery done locally. I am going to Dr. Ortiz in Mexico. I will get my fills in Roswell, Ga most likely or Nashville (used to live there).
  2. Well, I wont see him for 9 weeks after my surgery, he is military and will be in a military school for 9 weeks, he goes 3 days before my surgery so I will have plenty of time to heal I just wanted to make sure that when I see him, all would be good :biggrin: lol Carrie, by the way, I am in Chattanooga. We're close!
  3. Hello... This is kind of embarressing but I must know the answer to this... My bf and I of 5 years have an EXTREMELY healthy sex life - which usually always tends to get rough.... I have read the other posts saying after healing time, u can pretty much go back to having whatever kind of sex you were having before without any issues.... well here is my question.... we tend to get rough with oral sex as well which can cause gagging.... (sorry TMI) ... will this hurt the band or cause it to slip? This is pretty much an everyday thing for us... so it wouldnt be like its occasionally so i really have to take it into consideration. Ive read other posts about food causing people to throw up so I was assuming if other things tended to make you gag I would be ok... but i just wanted to see if anyone else could help me out.... Thanks!! surely im not the only girl who experiences this????? lol
