Topic: RE: Average Weight loss on Lap band?
I'm on month 3 of my weight loss. I'm averaging 11-13lbs per month. The doctor has been telling me I'm losing weight too fast. So.... 20lbs seems like too much

Topic: RE: Is there a link between obesity & fibromyalgia?

Thank you for sharing. I am doing alot of research a out lap band surgery and fibromyalgia, the benefits, the meds and how that is impacted. Unfortunately although my meds help me so much...i have put on 30 pounds very quickly. This is the heaviest o ha e ever been in my life and I need to get a handle on it before I can't bounce back from it. Hoping the reports that lap band is a good tool to go tell the weight and reduce symptoms even if I can't currently be as active as I was used to. I want to live life and not be isolated by being over weight which exacerbates my FM flares and pain.

Topic: Weight Loss Surgery Friendly PCP in Los Angeles

My daughter has decided she wants to have weight loss surgery. She currently has to choose her Medi-Cal health plan and the choices are L.A. Care and Health Net. Anyone have WLS with either of these and can you recommend a WLS PCP who will not give a lot of hassle? She has been deciding for years if she wanted to do this and is finally ready, it would be a shame to have a PCP who would be discouraging.

No, there was no repeated swelling. This was the first and only time I have had any "side effect" from my band.
