Hello Helen,
I have not had any complications with my surgery
I stayed in the Eurovalley Hotel - It is very basic but clean and most importantly the Staff were wonderful. They also have a very long corridor that you can pace to get rid of that wind you get in your shoulder.
My aftercare with Dr De Bruyne has been great. I found my transition with the band to be a bit more difficult than I expected. I thought weight loss would be easy but infact you really have to work at it. I have 6.25cc of restriction in a 10 cc band . . . . Dr De Bruyne really does look after his patients and is a firm man - he knows about the ristriction levels and gives very good advice. The price for his fills is now £80 very resonable.
I have lost 3 stone so far... It is not amazing but my fault and is better than putting it on.
With the weather here I am doing more exercise and sticking to a low carb diet.
I wish you all the best with your new adventure.
