Hey Steve,

I moved to Staten Island a year ago, July 2011. I had my lap band surgery back in December 2007, in Mexico. At the time I lived in Southern Utah and it was cheaper to go to Mexico. Anyway, fast forward 5 years, I have gained back all the weight I did lose and now I trying to figure out where to even find a lap band center here in New York City. If you could reply to my email and give me some information on this, I would greatly appreciate it!

Steve,

Thanks so much for giving me the name of your Dr. I would greatly appreciate a phone number for her so I can get some more information. Like, there are a lot of Dr.s who won't touch me because I had my lap band put surgery in Mexico. Also, how much does she charge for a fill and other appointments?

I am so anxious to start losing weight again and I hope that my band hasn't slipped.

Julie

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
