Update! re:Dr Trieu's cell phone number
oh, Sheli, thank God, I'm sure that must of been scary, hope that don't happen again, I guess that is what I like about the band, it can be fixed, removed or emptied. now what happends, will you wait a few weeks before another fill? I'm happy all is better, now you can relax before your week starts up again tomorrow. Cheryl
Thanks Cheryl! It was scary but so good to know that the fix was only a phone call away. Now I have an idea of how scared my RNY friens was when her stoma obstructed...it was much harder for her to get fixed though...this is the one and only reason I chose the band over the RNY...and I did think seriously about the RNY..but the ability to get a bit of fill removed in this kind of emergency is a miracle!
Let me just say that I will be avoiding chicken breast for quite a while!!! Heck I may just have to diet the last 9 lbs off, I am not sure I want more fill again for a while...scared me!!!
But, yes, I can call in 2 weeks and get an appointment to fill again if I choose to...I may be a bit conservative and wait a while.
