I had lap band weight loss surgery many years ago ...

I had lap band weight loss surgery many years ago there and was unable to eat anything containing fiber without severe pain. One pea would send me into fits of vomiting and severe pain. I got a condescending "eat your vegetables" speech and "Oh - I've never heard of that" and my complaints were not looked into at all. No scans, no concern for my well-being...I don't even think they wrote it down. After complaining twice I retreated in depression, frustration and shame and never went back (and they of course never called to check on me). After years of vomiting blood, hemorrhaging through my bowels, acid reflux and being unable to sleep laying down I finally got help for my depression, dusted off the frustration and went to a different hospital to have the surgery reversed. I am well now.
