Lap Band Support Groups
There is a support group (mixed band and RNY) at Southwest Washington Medical Center in Vancouver across the river from Portland. I don't have the exact info on hand but if you go to SWmedicalcenter.com and look under bariatric info it should give you a phone number to call to get info. If you can't find it PM me and I'll see if I can pull it up for you. It's a good group and very active.
I'm looking for a lap band surgeon that will do fills for me. I had the surgery several years ago, but since have moved to Portland. I'd be more than happy to go up to Vancouver if they're good up there and will take me and my insurance. There's something wrong with the band (it doesn't hurt, I think it's just slowly leaked) and I'm gaining like mad!!! I'm 30lbs up and starting to really freak out about it. Any help with findind a good surgon for fills would be WONDERFUL! Thanks!
