      I was a born and raised Yinzer, but I live in Kansas City now. I love Pittsburgh so much, though, so I wanted to jump in!

      I love her so much, although you dont really see much of her. She is very busy but i want the best of the best. Good luck on your surgery.

    Hi. Fellow Pittsburgher here. Had my band Monday oct 14 by dr Mccloskey at magee. She was great and so were nurses.

    Worst thing this week has been headaches. Anyone else?

    Its probably just because your on clear liquids and have no real food in your belly. It should get better. Congrats on yr band.
