Ive never heard of the other doc you mentioned. Good luck on this 5th fill... how long have you been banded? And when was your last fill?

His name is Dr Schmidt and he is in Nederland, I have heard that Dr. Hahn and Dr. Hsu are also doing the lap band now, so you may try them.....Are you in the Nederland area? I am sorry I am just now responding to this!

If you want to come to Houston, Dr. Spivak is great. Now I say that and I haven't had my surgery yet, but I have been researching this for years.

Wednesday is my surgery date! Finally!

Someone asked where Nederland is. It's near Beaumont (southeast TX). Back when I was attending Lamar Univ. in Beaumont back in the early 70's, Nederland had a club called The Lighthouse that was quite the place to go. Haven't been there since.

Good luck with finding a good doc.!

Your are right about that, Dr. Spivak is great and has a great bedside manner too! I love him and my band. Going to Houston would be worth it. It is only about 2 hours from Beaumont to Dr. Spivak's office.

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

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
