Hi all

english and freckles first lol right here goes as a nurse myself we are always told we are accountable for our actions and our main duty is to cause no harm, well im sorry but the fact is ur both having to have revision surgery which as far as im concerened is causing harm through negligence as such, not to mention the out of pocket expenses, so please if it is found that the port or tubing has been damaged by having the fills then keep hold of it and dont let the bupa hospitals do there own tests get it done idependently through ur solicitors, i wish u both the very best of luck with it they will try and fob u off but keep fighting.

Hello all, still kicking along here. So nice to read about everyone. Sorry for the ones having troubles.

Question please: I'm in the US. Has anyone had their plastic surgery done in Beligium? If so, can you provide helpful information?

I do appreciate it very much.

Thanx Julie, I do have a new band now, but still fighting to be compensated for the extra expense of the second band. Its actually over 12 months now since I first sought out a solicitor who would take my case.

I dont know what happened to my old port but i find it a bit fishy that MVDB didnt send that back to the manufacturer for examination, when in fact he told me he had sent the band back????

[Freckles 0]

Aw Freckles so sorry to hear about your band woes, I agree too - what a bunch of pratts!! I hope your solicitor is a good one.

For me all is ok - we're 9 weeks pregnant now and my hubby calmed right down within 4 days. He is fine with it all, he was just shocked to high heaven! He's making plans for our future so we're all ok. He's even discussed names with me lol

As for the band - bloody hell, I wish I'd known I was pg, I wouldnt have bothered spunking 3.5K on a band.

I can eat anything I want including the banned stuff such as bread. I'm not losing weight after the initial 9lbs.

I'm always getting food stuck, and I have morning sickness like a whatsit

I feel like crap.

Thoroughly fucked off at the moment.

Sweetheart, wonderful news, so happy that hubby has now come to terms with it!!!!:smile:

Dont worry about having the band, a few of our daughters on here who have bands have had babies last year, and now have continued their weight loss, so all is not lost.

Just enjoy food while you can and make a beautiful little baby:biggrin:

Maybe you should be chewing the food more thoroughly hunny, so it wont stick, that wont do you any good.

Hi, getting a bit worried now, I've sent off my 500 euros and sent Freddy my flight details. I've emailed him 4 times to check he has got my deposit and flight times but have had no reply. I fly on Thursday and am really starting to wonder if it is going to happen...........Hubby thinks we have been scammed...................:smile:

[Freckles 0]

lol, no you wont have been scammed hun, Freddyboy is a bit dozey when it comes to replying to mails. Not good business I admit, but he doesnt seem to read them very often. I'm sure everything will be fine for you.

Others will vouch for him, please dont worry.

I think English Rose has a phone number for him, it might be better to speak to him over the phone to put your mind at rest.

I totally agree with Freckles, you havent been scammed. Frederik is a NIGHTMARE for replying to E-mails and he had me pulling my hair out for answers this week. His phone number is 00 32 472 01 90 91. I had to phone him/e-mail him several times for answers this week before I got him to reply.
