Erosion: Our OWN Statistics.

NO I have alot more than that to loose the 35 pound ticker is a first goal I get very dissappointed when I look at the whole thing so I start small..

I was wondering if this is the same doctor LOpez that works in Tijuana.. with doctor CLeysa

I've revised the stats a little to differentiate between the two Lopez that I have on record. They now appear as:

J.C.Lopez

J.Lopez-Corvala

I have currently got one questionmark outstanding as to who performed the operation, so currently that person is penciled in as a Lopez-Corvala (but it isn't an erosion).

Hope that clears it up.

Hi,

Great idea to collect stat's.

Format for Submission of Data:

Date Banded: July 26, 2005

Country: USA

Doctor: Abkin

Erodoed: Unfortunately, YES.

If Eroded Date Removed: January 27, 2006 (6 months & 1 day)

If the other patient of Abkins that had an erosion would contact me directly I'd appreciate it (highbios@aol.com).

Wish I wasn't a statistic.

Good Luck to everyone.

what are the symptoms of erosion?

Banded: 29 July 2003

Country: Sydney Australia

Surgeon: Dr Ritchie

Erosion: No

So far I am down exactly 80lbs, not all from the band - in the past 1.5 months I have also become an exercise addict - which took off another 16 out of the total. I take a mild antidepressant that has taken my head space into the best place for taking care of myself. At last I matter to me - after all of my 45 years - no surgery, pills, exercise or dieting can do that individually - we have to do it and listen to our souls and find what is right for us.

Good luck to you all

Glenda

I have read posts on other boards that patients with swedish bands have most erosion. Think it would be good to list what type band each has.

Just my 2cents what do ya'll think?

Greetings all interested Bandster type folks!

I've been a bit slack on keeping this as up to date as I was, mainly due to work being an abject pile of horse poop. They keep trying to kill me with over work but I am fighting on. I'll try and get at least a weekly update done for the stats.

All the best!

Hey there Apple

With regards to the Swedish band, its still under medical trial in the states so its a bit too soon to really give it a fair shake of the stick.

Secondly, you didn't mention who your Doc is.
