  1. Hi Debs, Thanks a million for the info, will check with GP and see as it will be very difficult to get done otherwise. Even if their nurse will do it would be helpful. I hope all gets better for you soon. JB
  2. Hi Oliverdog, Thanks for the encouragement, however, I still cannot see myself doing the injections!! I have asked a friend if she will but she just said NO!! So not sure where to go with this - Ideas anyone????? I hope you get over the coughs and the scars heal so you can get rid of the patches. Good luck. JB
  3. Hi Carriejess and Chapamar, I am sorry to say that will put me off the surgery in one hit. I do not do needles, so much so that when I have surgeries (unfortunately I have had over 40 op on my legs) they have to give me gas as I don't do needles.... help.... JB
  4. Hi all, I so enjoy reading the support you all have for each other. I have read a few times about injections please can someone explain this to me as I am looking to have the band in about 4 weeks time? Do you have to inject yourself? Thanks JB
  5. Hi Carriejess, Thanks for that, I fly a lot of the time with my work, they send me all over the world. Does this mean I will fill then defill and fill and defill all the time? xx
  6. Hi all, interesting talk you all have. Nice to see such support. I am looking to have the band with CDB and I have a few questions if I may? I am in UK but normally live in India, so how important is the after care in the respect of 6 months after surgery? How often and for how long after do you need fills? That's a starter for 10!!! Many thanks JB
  7. How do you write a thread on here? thanks x
