Topic: RE: Looking at surgeons---Help please
I did not use these doctors but know that some of the folks on this board have--hopefully they will respond.
Welcome, and let us know if we can help in any way.

Topic: Looking at surgeons---Help please
Hello,
I am new to ObesityHelp a few months ago. I asked the same question when I became a member but my surgery date is getting closer. I have seen a surgeon. My doctor said to look at 3 surgeons.
I would like to get some opions on them, if anyone has used the listed surgeons:
1) Dr. Scott Pennington from Advanced Surgeons in Bham
2) Dr. Freeman at RMC Anninston
3) Dr. Jay Long at St. Vincent East (old medical center east)
Like I said I did see one surgeon but would like to get some feedback on those listed above so I can make a final decision on who will place my LAP-BAND.
Thanks so much for all your responses.

I must've tried on 40! Some were hilarious--we even have a pic from the dressing room of a couple of "gems".....
Today's eats:
B1-Jimmy Dean D-Lights bagel
B2-4 oz grilled chicken
L-taco salad

Topic: RE: Ultrasound-update on labs
I had the same issue with my gallbladder. I didn't have stones but mine was only functioning at like.....12 or 17%....can't remember for sure which one. So my surgeon, removed and no more problems :)
I need to get a Dr. here in AL. I have procrastinated terribly and need to get some lab work done myself. But......I may be transferring with my job in the next 2-3 months so I have talked myself into waiting until I relocate.....AGAIN.

Topic: RE: Tanning
So true. My theory is, We have worked hard for the bodies we have. We are healthier and more active than ever....for most of us anyways, so we should enjoy......2-piece bathing suits and all!
Topic: Ultrasound-update on labs
Got results yesterday--no stones. So I guess now I'll just wait and see if I keep having symptoms and if I do, then they'll look further into it.
Got my labs back too--everything is excellent!! Of course I attribute this to my own research on what I should take rather than what I was told to take (think Flintstones chewable.........) I'm waiting for the copies so I can compare to last year's and make sure levels aren't dropping.....lots of work keeping up with our health!
