    February 2007 bandsters!

    I don't think you're being over dramatic. Surgery is a very serious thing. I left notes for my kids before I went into surgery. Never hurts to take precautions. Looking forward to hearing from you after your surgery. Donna:hungry:

    February 2007 bandsters!

    I was banded on February 9, 2007
  5. A pulmonary consult is a good thing. I was banded on Friday, Febrraury 9, 2007. When I went for my three day follow up I was having a shortness of breath and calf pain. My doctor immediately sent me for a CAT scan and ultrasound of my calf. Three pulmonary embolisims were found in my lungs so I was admitted to the hospital immediately. Everything is under control now. The scary thing is that I had that same kind of calf pain two other times in my life and they were both negligently dismissed by the doctors I had at the time. Now I know that I could have possibly had a problem with clotting prior to the surgery and I didn't know it. Would have been nice to know before my Lap Band surgery! Good Luck and I wish the best for your surgery.

    Glucophage for weight loss?

    HI Pam! Two years ago I was diagnosed with PCOS and I took glucophage to become pregnant with my second child. A nice side effect of glucophage was weight loss. I oftened wondered why it is not marketed as such. Long term use of glucophage does require liver and kidney monitoring. Good Luck. Hope this helps. Donna
