Hi, I have no idea if you are still interested in a support group, as your post was awhile back; however, I too, am a patient of Dr. Shayani, and have been struggling a great deal since I was banded last March. I finally forced myself to attempt to stop struggling alone and have been navigating this site in search of some support, recommendations, wisdom, etc...I also live in the south suburbs, and would certainly appreciate any info. you can share regarding local support groups, as I feel trying to navigate this alone has proved quite unsuccessful...thank you for any insight you can offer!

I'm also a patient if Dr. Shayani. I was very disappointed when Tina left St. James, but she has reunited with Dr. Shayani at Adventist hospital in Bolingbrook.
