I am tired of being tired, desparate and feeling like a failure. I see so much hope and support on this site. I am looking forward to making new friends here and finding information. Does anyone know of a great surgeon in San Antonio? So glad I found you all!

Try the Texas thread, there are tons of Dr.'s in Texas doing the band, as well as across the border in Mexico. Go down to the USA local area on the home page, and then click to find the Texas support---there should be someone there to help you!!

Good Luck, we are glad you are here too!!

And if you don't mind driving to Houston. We have a really great one here with tons of experience. Dr. Spivak.

Dana, I was just banded 2/12/07 by dr raja in san antonio. I am doing really well after surgery. If you look up "the wish center" on google you will get the number. It is now called "Bridges" but is still listed under it's old name in the directory.

I'm also going to Dr. Spivak in Houston. He actually has the most experience in the state and has trained many surgeons in this procedure. I'm sure if you called his office they could possibly refer you to someone in San Antonio.

      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! 😞
