I have had some other medical situations going on ..

I had an abnormal pap smear and I needed to have a coloposcopy and they found that I have severe dysplasia so they told me they would have to do a cone biopsy and I had that done last friday and IM still a little sore. I found out yesterday that I dont have cervical cancer but I do need to have a hysterectomy and I go back to the doctor on march 16th and we will discuss it all. My gynecologist knows that I had my tubes tied years ago now but he still had to ask me if I wanted children, I chuckled and said NO. I am 41 so no i dont want anymore children. I am so happy that I dont have cancer but I have to see how they need to do this surgery and Im sure they are going to have to talk to my lap band doctor especially if they cant do a vaginal hysterectomy. That makes me nervous, they are not going to take out my band.. no way no how.. Im wondering if anyone else has had to have any abdominal surgeries since there band placement.

thanks for listenting Julie

So glad you got good news! I had my hyster. pre-band vaginally (for incontinence). They gave me good drugs to come home with, and by the time I was done with them I was turning the corner. I was very tired, but it wasn't too bad for me. Others her have had this done recently...if you don't get replies about post-band try another post with 'hysterectomy post-band?' in your title and they'll see it. Good luck to you! -BG
