Just wondering if anyone has had lapband surgery (mine was in 2007) and had OHS. I have a ring around the esophagus and a tube down to a port on my left side. I have researched it and have been unable to find any info. I was told they could not do a TEE because of the tubing being an obstruction. I did have a TTE. My cardiologist wants me to have a stress test as well before recommending me to a surgeon. Thanks!
Marie Myers Wow, that is an interesting problem! Have you received a second opinion from a different practice?
Carol Aitken Not yet but I will definitely schedule a second opinion. Thank you for your response.
