I too live in West Linn, OR and just got banded last Friday. I'm now trying to decide where to go for my first fill. I was under the impression that Dr. Kelly does not use fluoroscopy - Is that right? rayjcruz@gmail.com

I will absolutely head over and join the Freedom Fighters. Best of luck to you tomorrow! It'll be great! Exciting times ahead.

I've been reading posts on this site for quite a while. This site has been invaluable. I'm writing my first post as I sit in my hotel room in San Antonio, TX. I was banded on Friday by Dr. Rincon and I'm headed home to Oregon tomorrow. Yippee!! All has gone well, however, like many other new banders, the "burping" saga begins-small price to pay I think . So when do actual dreams of eating real, solid foods go away? I can't remember the last time I dreamt of eating and the last two nights since my surgery, that's all I did-Too Funny !
