Hi, I am having surgery this week, not scared of the procedure at all, have had many major surgeries on my spine in the past. But I am crying all the time, which is definitely not me. I am also a diabetic, my sugar levels are fine...........am so happy to start my new life, but can't expalin my feelings. Has anyone else out there experienced this? Also feeling very weak on the pre- surgery diet, getting enough calories. Has anyone else experienced this? Any help you could provide, would really be appreciated............Thanks Lori

I also have RA and Spinal Stenios talking Clebrex and having infusion with Remicade. Having surgery this Fri. and Surgeron told me the preference is to stop NSAIDS but it is stil doable, just have to watch you closer. But to qualifly for the Lap Band you need to be typically over a 100lbs.............Wish you luck
