Recommended Posts

Hi

I have decided to get the procedure done - just have to save up for it. I live in uk and want to go to Brussels as it seems cheapest and safest there. Anyone know of the above?

Thanks

Hi Susan, I too live in the Uk and and am going to see De Bruyne on the 18th October 2007 so excited. I have been told that you can have an appointment as early as four weeks. It will be really good to know how you get on with your journey. I have heard nothing but very good things about this Dr. Yay. I look forward to hear from you xx

Hi Guys

I went to Upper wimpole st at CDP's London surgery on the 18th and was happy to meet many of his patients who all seem very happy with him. I have made a preliminary date I do not yet know whether I can make but hopefully might get surgery done in Dec or possibly end Jan, hopefully the sooner. None of the patients I met said they regretted it, but that they would do it all over again. Apparently there is a lot of stuff about CBD in WLS site but which I am not subscribed to as it costs £15.

Hi Just wondered if anyone could post the costs of getting the procedure done in Brusseld with Dr Chris, and also how much the fills etc are afterwards. I am still saving, but hoping to have enough money by August 08.

Thanks:thumbup:

Hi Jiggy

I am staying at the Campanile Hotel in Vilvoorde. It will cost 207 Euros which is about £164.00 (twin room). The Eurostar is going to cost £138.00. Thats for 2 people though as I am taking a friend with me. The only extras I will have to pay is taxi and train fares. At least I will be saving on restaurant bills lol. I think it will be Slim fast for me!

I will be having my consultation with Dr Chris on the 12th August and being baded the next day.

Where are you from?

I will let you know how I got on if you like?

Hi English Rose,

I am based in Lancashire - I am undecided wether to go with Dr Chris or Dr Mark Fouqet, so am still doing lots of reading up.

What is Dr Chris's website - why have you decided to go with him? How much weight would you like to lose?

Thanks again x

Hi Jiggy

Hope you dont mind me asking but are you male or female?

You can go to Dr CDB website on europe surgery@yahoo.co.uk

I decided to go with him for 2 reasons, he has a good reputation, I have read a lot of good comments about him on this site. And secondly the price issue, he is a lot cheaper than other surgeons.

I havent heard of Dr Mark Fouqet. Where is he based?

I have a lot to lose. Id like to lose about 7 stone. Im not sure how realistic that is.

Hi Jiggy

Good luck in finding your surgeon. Its all rather daunting isnt it.

Keep in touch, it would be great to hear how you are getting on.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
