  1. I actually think I have a bottle in the cabinet. Off to check in a few. I appreciate all of the responses. I only hope my insurance approves me quickly. Monday will be a week. The surgery won't be scheduled until I get my approval.
  2. I was already thinking of using the soap as I have had MRSA several times already. The staff at True Results seemed to think I would sail through this operation since I did well with the gallbladder surgery. I guess I am just nervous because I am so eager to start both my new lifestyle and my new career. This is a big year for change for me and my family.
  3. Thank you, Delmann. I am pretty sure that will be fine then. I am about to start a new job and I was curious about if the pain was going to limit me. I don't want to start a job and then miss too many days right away.
  4. Hi, I am new to the site and should be banded shortly (just waiting on insurance approval). I am curious though, for those who had gallbladder surgery and have been banded, which hurt worse or was the pain comparable? I seemed to sail through my gallbladder surgery and other than a little tenderness for 3 days afterward, it was a piece of cake. I literally only took one pain pill. I am just really nervous that I am going to be in a lot of pain after surgery this time.
