Not enough Lap banders
I have found that this forum does not have many lapbanders and even if I search under the "Lap band" section many of the responders are gastric bypass ( RNY) patients. Lapbanders seem to have different issues and questions especially in the beginning with "fills" etc.
I have found another Forum called "Lap band talk forum" that lapbanders might find useful/helpful.
Not trying to get you to stop using this forum, but I have found there are not enough lap banders on here to answer my questions. When I asked about foods that bother people long term out, several of the people that replied were gastric bypass and while I appreciate that they took the time to answer, I'm pretty sure our pouches are different b/c of the band.
I plan to check both forums when I have a question.
