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 freckles, frederik was very busy last month in manchester and i had to wait down stairs for about 20mins.. once i got upstairs i had about a 15 min wait but that was ok as i was talking to vanessa and miss flump, I might see you there without you hanging around x

So isnt vanessa going on the same day?

I hope she's not there when I go, she might belt me :cool2:

So, you will have to approach me cos you know what I look like kid :biggrin:

I hope to see you there. Do you want me to wear a pink carnation? :mad2:

Hi Gary, and anyone else who is interested Chris Deprez contact details are: e.mail chris.deprez@ecfs.be and his phone number is +32(0)472 303 321 he does not use Julie Mackintosh to arrange his appointments, but sorts them out himself, he band fills for patients other than ecfs clients aswell

mags

thanks for this i mailed him and got the dates thanks a lot.

Chris Deprez has just e.mailed me back, the combined areas of ECFS include Newport, Bristol, London, Manchester, Glasgow, Edinburgh, and Dublin. I assume Edinburgh and Newport ar Chris Deprez, and the others are Fred and CDB, hope this info helps.

Edinburght is defo Dr C unless he does another day but Duprez does glasgow think its every 3rd fri in the month

Probably Gillian, though it does still stick out a bit, nothing like it was or like Garry's, so its just taking longer for the swelling to go down.

I have had a reply from Chris Deprez and he has made me an appointment for 9th April in Manchester with Frederik.

Is he the same Frederik that works with Dr CDB?:biggrin:

yes it his him luv i am also going down to manchester that day think i am 10.45 may meet you there.

Hi everyone, good to see everyone is ok, I have missed you all so much over the past few day, I have been so busy and not had the time to chat. I have been keeping up with all your stories and tales. I have only got about another five or six more weeks till my op, I will try to be more activie on here. I just love reading your messages and dont have much to add to your tales xx

No wonder I'm sore, I just watched a video of an eroded band being removed

The reason i looked was to find out what an eroded band looked like, cos MVDB told me that the tubing had eroded and there was a hole in it. Yikes.

To think I have been through that twice, wasnt too bad actually, it was the removal of the faulty one that is causing me pain I think.:biggrin:

Oh blinkin eck Garry, you wont see me cos I'm 1pm....you'll be long gone when i get there unless you're hanging around waiting for us chicks to get there:w00t:

Which is not a bad thing btw:laugh:

Lol :seeya: its ok i will recognise you. I'm meeting up with vanessa then we are going together, im sure you will be fine she is very nice x :seeya:

Hi gary im glad your thingy has gone down, things are starting to look up for you now x

Good luck Gillian!! I am thinking about doing the WLS package as I am probably going to have to go into London anyway and like you said you can have unlimited fills in 6 months! Are they nice? Would you recommend? It is Wendy who also goes to London.

yes we got our fills yesterday in leeds..i had 1.25 put in taking me to 5.25..she said she could feel the pressure now and that i would def feel this time (she says its like when your pumping a bike tyre up from flat..you pump away feeling no pressure, then when its getting near you can feel the pressure as the needle is pushing the saline in) were going to sheffield in 2 weeks for maybe another dependidng on how we go with this one..but last night and this morning i could really feel some proper restriction, even with the smoothie i had for breakfast..maybe it was a bit thick altho i did liquidise it. i think im definatly going to be more cautious when i go to even mushy foods this time. she has these all singing dancing scales..and they do a print out personal to me, and even though they said i hadnt lost any weight, my fat mass was down by 2.5lb..so think that maybe means that the muscle mass has gone up?!..i dunno but want her gadgety scales!. and yes sammy i asked her if it was her who did the fills in london and yes it is..she does all of the clinics herself,shes a very busy lady! the clinics in london are every saturday and every sunday, and you can go to any of the clinics anywhere 2 weeks apart. the london one is on harley street. the package is worth it but i think the single fill is £80.check on their website. I am feeling hopefull that this fill will help me to start moving now, touch wood! she usually follows a rule of 3,2,1mls for fills she says for the first 3 appointments, then its fine tuning after that. x
