When I was researching a doctor, I used WASaBubbleButt's "How to Research a Doctor" to make my own list of questions. That post is in the LapBandTalk magazine section, if you want to look it up.

Here is another list that may give you ideas:

Questions to ask your surgeon

:crying: Damn it Dan now you see why some of us don't line up to answer questions.

Now I agree that Dan has the manners of a camel :rolleyes: but I also think that he answered this post fine. But we can keep spanking him anyway. Dan's just one of those guys that you love to hate. Right, Dan? LOL :scared2:

His own statements are what damned him as far as communicating with me goes. I don't hate him or love to hate him or anything of the sort. He had offended me and some others, I gathered, by being very aggressive on another post. He expressed that he doesn't get along with women. I find that type of statement to be discriminatory and just as unacceptable if a person were to say that he doesn't get along with African-Americans or Asians. It really struck me as "you people" sort of thing to say. I am glad that I learned how to block his posts because that's not what I came here for. I don't enjoy having to defend myself. I came here for support, and I had just hoped to get ready for my surgery consult without having to deal with any nonsense.

Oops, my name has been used in vain again, so I will respond.

I defy anyone to copy and paste a post of mine that where I said I don't get along with women.

What I did say was "Since the forum is predominantly women, I would probably offend a lot of you"

If your'e gonna quote me, which I love and shows that you pay attention to me and care about what I say:biggrin: just quote me right.

Okay, Dan, since you know I love to tease you, I'm game!

See the quote from you above? Now I will copy and paste a piece of the above quote where you say it: "I don't get along with women."

Okay, okay, it's taken out of context, but you defied and I complied. :thumbup:

The way I see it, we have to keep our sense of humor and not take things too seriously. Not that anyone on this board ever does. :rolleyes:

With all due respect, it does appear that you are looking to be offended to the point of insisting you will be offended one way or another. It's a choice on your part but not the best way to get people to jump in there and help you out with your questions.

      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! 😞
