AFTERCARE RETURNS TO ABILENE!!!!



Recommended Posts

I am from Abilene and was banded and then abandoned by Dr Einspanier.

I have had an absolutely MISERABLE time since then --> NO ONE WOULD TAKE ME ON FOR AFTERCARE.

I'm sure those from Abilene in the similar situation have had the same problems and will breath the same sight of a relief because...

CARE IS COMING BACK TO ABILENE

Have you seen all those big green bulletin boards around town for "Bariatric Solutions"?

I didn't really take them seriously... how good could a place be that needs to cover a town almost 200 miles away with giant boards advertising 'seminars with door prizes' and 'summer lapband specials.' BUT they do actually take a lot of insurance plans so I thought I'd give them a shot.

I visited them yesterday in Dallas and was delighted not only by how nice everyone was, but by the news they gave me: they are soon to begin deploying something to Abilene called a "BandWagon" (ha, right?) - for FILLS!! And yes, it bears repeating, they take insurance!!!

I didn't get the timetable for this because I was too busy dancing for glee.

My only question is: what took them so long? Abilene has been a completely untouched market crying for care for a YEAR now. C'mon!! I'm legitimately surprised that no other enterprising dr/facility has swooped in to fill the need before this.

... though I guess I answered my own question: it's ABILENE.

Oh, well...

but good news, yes???

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
