That is why I chose my surgeon to do my fills,. My surgeon is a lapband patient. He understands head hunger, and everything else, too.

Did he give you any good ideas on how to deal with head hunger? I so struggle with this way to often.

Thanks :)

I really have to think about this answer. He just reminded me that it wasn't real hunger, just head hunger. And that you usually need to try to get your mind off your stomach, maybe doing something, like walking, exercise, or having a glass of Water. He is just mostly a mentor that knows what I and his other patients are going thru. If you are satiated, and in green zone, then you really are not hungry. He insists, that you should not get hunger pains! I think that I do!! B) Karen..aka..kll724

Pittsburgher,

My doctor has offices in/near Jefferson, Sewickley, and Washington hospitals. (Hope Bariatrics) and I've had 4 adjustments and only 1 time has the PA given the fill, the Doctor/Surgeon mostly give the adjustments. As for any questions they answer them but since I've been banded in July, I mostly know most items and I always have come here to check and if need be to cross check.

Remember your are the employer, you pay them for service.

Oh I no. I chose my surgeon because she is the best. She is a very busy woman I can see her anytime, but she doesnt do the fills. Im okay with that now, I was just seeing the wrong PA that refused to fill me correctly. Now that my surgeon switched my PA I can get properly filled. I want to see my surgeon, and go to where I had my surgery for my care. Plus I have UPMC insurance as I work for UPMC and you must see a UPMC physician.

      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! 😞
