I am getting banded next month and am hoping for someone I can contact with my random questions, and share my insecurities with. I live in SLC.

I was banded 6/11/07 and it was the best thing I've ever done for myself. I'm from Cache Valley but you can contact me anytime!

I live close to SLC. I notice you did your surgery in CO. Do you have a Dr. or clinic nearby to handle your fills? You will definitely want to find someone close.

My band has helped me regain control of my life. Hope your experience is as rewarding!!

Actually I am finding that it is about the same amount of money to go to my surgeon for fills as it is to get one here. I haven't been able to find anyone who does them for less than 185. I can get cheap plane tickets, and my surgeon does fill for free the first 3 months and after that they are only $15. So I may end up finding someone cheaper, but if they are around the same price I would rather have my surgeon do it. I am looking forward to regaining control of my life as well. Thanks!!

You really might have a backup plan. A friend of mine had a fill then had to have an emergency unfill the next day because of the extreme pain that it caused over night. She was fine once she went back to the Dr office. Just my opinion.
