If you were losing 1-2 pounds per day for " a couple of months", that would be around 60 pounds ?

Doctor who sees you for two visits in the same week and then says go away , you have no insurance?Something is not right?

Were you self-pay? If you paid everything up front, what was the aftercare supposed to be/cover?

Aftercare is so important.

Wouldn't you be considered an emergency surgery? If this is a blockage?

Doesn't this hospital have other surgeons?

I think there is something else going on in this very bizarre situation.

Call an attorney, even an ambulance chaser can handle this stupidity. Ask for a hospital advocate.

This is ludicrous!

Posting on behalf of my sister Krismo83! This whole situation is exactly that UNBELIEVABLE! Her drs washed their hands of her and told her to go to a county hospital because she has no insurance.

Update: My sister had her surgery this morning and is now in recovery. They removed the band.

To those of you who prayed for my sister I would like to say Thank you! Her band was removed this morning and the blockage is gone. She was able to keep down a cup if Water tonight and she said it was great to feel it go down.

To those of you who are doubting that what my sister has gone through is true or not. It is 100% true!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
