Hello, well tomorrow is the seminar and I'm at work trying to think up things to ask, but I guess the nerves are destroying brain cells. I cant seem to think...I only got 3 questions written down...

1. In your experience have patients that have PCOS and pre-diabetic find it still extremely difficult to lose weight w/ the band?

2. How many patients have had problems w/ band and have to have it removed?

3. How many bands have you done?

They sound TOTALLY LAME dont they?? I know there is tons of stuff I want to know and ask, but for the life of me I cant think of them...damn it!!! LOL

Please help me!!!

Those are great questions!

Most likely they will go over lots of things. The more you learn the more questions you will have.

Follow up care is very important. I would ask what type of follow up care do they provide. Also find out about support groups.

A biggie is fills some Drs offices send you to the nutritionist and she determines if you need a fill or not. Thats just not right in my opinion. Determining fills should be between you and your Dr. If your not losng and a nutritonist is having pms and decides that you just aren't living the way you should so you don't need a fill you just need to change your actions, I'd kick her!

I know some people whose Band Dr works like that.

Good luck!
