  1. I having problems but nothing comparing to what everything that comes with being obese... I'm nurse and I told you now being type 2 diabetes is a big issue, I have seen people having complication with their sugar level and having strokes or becoming blind... and I believe you should do your surgery and think possitive about and everything will be fine.. Im happy with results so far, my issue will be resolved soon.. good luck.:tongue2:selene
  2. excited is it!!!:scared2:
  3. Surgeon doesn't know exactly how it happens.. he said maybe It was loose and the pressure moved up, not a real answer, he is a very good Doctor from Stanford Hospital, and I trust him, and I'm sure he will fix my problem, but is not fun living with discomfort with everything I eat... I haven't of anyone else having this issues!!
  4. Hi, Im having similar issues.. I got my band done on 8/08 and so far I lost 50 pounds. I was doing great until 3wks ago until I started choking with everything I eat.. sometimes even fluids... My surgeon decided to do a second surgery, he said band moved all the way up and pouch is too small and thats the reason why I'm having reflux... you may want to ask your doctor to do testing on you?
  5. I had my surgery back in august 2008, doing great until 3wks ago when I started vomiting all my solids... had a test done and lapband moved all the way up... Having a second surgery done next wk... anyone having issues too? Im nervous how about if it happens again... any suggestions?:tongue2:selene
