I went to Dr. Horgan in Chicago a longggggg time ago. I believe he charged around 200. I'm actually tryin to find his number because I lost it and I can't find it on the internet. Maybe you'll have some luck.

I just got back from Synchrony Health. This was the second time I've been there for a band adjustment. I can say that they do a damn good job. I can't say enough to you fellow Chicago area, Eastern Illinois and Western Indiana and Southeast Wisconsin Bandsters that this is the place to go to. As usual,, Dr. Watkins, Karen and Melody and the rest of the staff are the "BEST"!

Give them a call, 630-990-2440

I made an appt. at Synchrony Health for this Wednesday. The weather might cause me to cancel... but I know I am ready. Thanks for info - they charge $95., a real bargain. I've been on the phone all day trying to find a location closer to me. I might have to opt to pay more if the weather doesn't coorperate, otherwise - I'll pack my patience and reschedule at Synchrony.

I just called Synchrony for information. There is an ititial 500 transfer fee plus 95 for the adjustment. Subsequent adjustments are an additional 95 each. Hmm... If I were here to live and not just for 2 months I would consider it but that's a lot of money!! Will see what my other options are..... dont' want to spend more than 200-250.

I called and Dr. Shayani charges a $500 program fee, then $130 fills after ;( Im only here in Illinois for another 4 weeks... I guess I'll wait until I get back to Texas to see my surgeon. :thumbdown:

He charges a program fee if you had the surgery out of the country. If he is able to communicate with your Dr and they agree that you need care here temporarily, I believe there is no program fee.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
