Guest guest Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 Hi all, This has to do with inflammation without infection. I have cfids and am considering gastric banding surgery for weight loss. They basically tie up your stomach to make it smaller instead of the drastic surgery where they cut part of your stomach off. Here's my question - because my immune system has gone crazy and reacts to every substance put into it (food allergies, etc), do you think my body would react to the plastic band they use? I hear of people with breast implants developing immune system dysfunction because they are allergic to the plastic Has anyone else had this surgery? Does anyone have any thoughts on the matter? Thanks, Jody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
