I do agree with part of your support group, and wish the same rules applied here: if someone HASN'T ever had a band, they have no business opening their yap to comment about what band life is like.

Thank you for your post. This is how I learn about my side effect from post banders. As you know from my post I am 3 years out and having port pain under the skin on the left side and I have to drink ho****er with every meal. I do not regret my decision to have the Lap Band. I am just concerned about the increased pain. It has been about 2 years since I have been on this web site, but I knew I would get some reassurance from all of you who know how the Lap Band feels. Thank you for all the feed back.

Thanks Bette, cause I just don't get why people don't want us to have our own forum. They ***** when we post here but they don't want us to have our own little spot! What the heck is that?! It's not like we are over there plotting to over take the free band world, just ******' and moanin' among ourselves. We have a right to our opinions and experiences too, life ain't always fair! Get over it! Or start your own group!

Bette,

I can't approve membership unless you have all 3 mods unblocked. I hope you'll consider unblocking because we'd like for you to join us!
