Guest guest Posted October 5, 1998 Report Share Posted October 5, 1998 Dayle -- I am one of the first " bandster's " in the United States (I was the second one, actually. Anyway, my band slipped. I'll be very happy to talk to you about it if you would like (privately). I would rather not scare other people on the list when it is likely that they would have no trouble.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 1998 Report Share Posted October 5, 1998 Hi Suzeann! I was in one of the first clinical studies (where they were trying to get this procedure approved by the FDA). I had my done in North Carolina in 1996. >>> " Suzeann " suzann@...> 10/05 3:15 PM >>> Hi Kit , You had this done, and you live in the U.S. Where abouts. I didn't know it had been approved yet.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 1998 Report Share Posted October 5, 1998 Suzeann: I sent a long reply detailing everything earlier this morning to another person that asked. I'll send you a copy, okay? >>> " Suzeann " suzann@...> 10/05 6:32 PM >>> Kit, Tell me about it. Are you happy you had it done, how much weight did you lose, has the FDA approved it yet? How do you get to be in such a study? I would be in all of them.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 1998 Report Share Posted October 5, 1998 dear dayle, i've had my lapband for a little over seven months and have not had any problems with slippage. i sometimes get nervous when i overeat and feel i might slip my band but so far i have not had any problems. overall i am very pleased with the results. tina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
