Hi Loren! Welcome! Your gonna love it here...I sure do. :)

Loren, my name is Aly and I too was banded on 12/14 in Tampa at Memorial Hosp. My doctor is Dr. Grossbard!

Hola!

This is a great forum and Welcome. You will find lots of information here quickly and all personal experiences from all. What better way is there than the experiences of others. WE tell it like it is and you have to take bits and pieces to tailor make it for yourself. Some bad, but mostly good is found here. I believe here on this forum, since all of us have gone through different health issues in our personal lives, there's NO dumb question. We are all learning from each other.

Have fun on this forum. Banded on Aug 6, 2012.

Best wishes and Keep the Faith.

I was at Memorial Hospital with Dr. Dicicco. Small world.

Hi, Loren, I sent you a message.

Dr. DiCicco was my assisting surgeon. Do you see him in Zephyrhills? I saw them there a few times but will follow up in their office in Orlando. It's closer to Oviedo where I live. It is a small world! So how are you doing post op?
