    Dr. Miles or Dr. Schmitt patients

    this has nothing to do with original question, was just wondering around site and reading. My dr. mentioned lapband in passing the other day as a possible treatment for my weight and diabeties. My diabeties are out of control and have been for years. I really want to have this lapband done, but am scared to death. I guess I am just looking for someone who may can realte to my anguish. I seem to have to will power when it comes to food, and just love to eat. My wieght has been pretty stable for the last 3 years, not up, but not down any except for the occasionaly 5-10 lbs. But am consistantly at appr 240- 250. I have no idea what to expect, what some of the terminology is here, like "first fill"? etc... I live in the b'ham area and do not even know who would be the best dr for this. I also wonder about complications afterward and stuff. any suggestions for a good detailed place that can really tell it like it is? I am on dialup and high speed connection isnt available in my area, so computer use is so slow as it is, but i am desperate for some answers. 41 yrold f, worried about to much or is there really some great success out there with no complications?
