Anyone from Houston, TX?



Recommended Posts

Hi, was wondering if anyone is from Houston currently starting preop diet?! My surgeon is Dr. Robert Davis and I start my preop on the 5th of July.

I had to do 6 months and it's been over for a while now, I just had to wait until my mom would be off for summer to help me out with my kids. I only lost 10 pounds during it

Thank you for the positive feedback about Primomo - he is scheduled to be my surgeon as well when insurance allows the surgery.

Dr. Primomo and his assistant are the best. I had an old Molina band that was placed in 1996. It had eroded my stomach and adhered to my spleen and liver. My surgery lasted almost 4 hours. Dr. Primomo was able to get the band out and revise to RNY. Surgery was on a Wednesday. I came home on Friday and cooked dinner for my family on Sunday and trimmed my rose bushes. Lol....

@@cinand38 Thank you for your insight about Primomo. You have been through a lot. Congratulations on successful surgery. How long ago was your surgery with him?

Dr. Primomo is so kind and easy to talk to. It has been a blessing working with him so far and look forward to sharing equally positive surgery stories after.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
