I got one from Dr. Sanchez after surgery. It's very handy to give to Doctor's and hospitals to explained that you have a band if for some reason you weren't able to tell them yourself or they see something odd in a test or something. I keep my in my wallet and every physician or hospital I go to I give them a copy.

I got one and I keep it behind my driver's licsense. It just has a pic of the band on a stomach and it has my surgeons name, number, and the fact that i have a lapband... that kind of thing. I got mine in a packet of stuff from Inamed that my surgeon gave me on my first office visit after my surgery.

I got one from my doctor at my first follow up visit. I keep it in in my wallet. I have ordered a medic alert Bracelet that states brief info about my band and that there is more info in wallet.

I dont have one. Never heard of it, heard of the food card but thought it was something you printed out and had your Dr sign for discounted food.

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

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
