Thats normal. A surgeon will not see the same day of sx. Unless simething went or is going wrong with you. You might not even see the surgeon the next day if he has a pa. How do i know because i am a surgical rn. Usually if thry sit at the desk they r reviewing charts placing orders or divtating their notes.

When was your sx?

I had sx on 9/10

you can get the drops at gnc

I did ask my surgeon about that, he said it would be ok. I would be getting hcg injections from his office. I know that it will help me during this difficult time while I wait to be filled.

Thanks for the encouragement!! I just configured a ticker for my signature. I cannot believe I have lost almost 30lbs on my own!! I can do this!!

thanks!!

Been there, had my sx on 9/10/12 its difficult before and after!! Its do able be strong, I know I wasnt compliant before and after.

I had regular food. I should know better, I am an RN!! but still I am human and tempted!! I dont want my stitches to become undone, plus I had a hiatal hernia repair too!!

Congrats on thise losing weight!! I cheated already!! Feel guilty but placed myself back on full liquids for another 11 more days,,

Now I know why the sucess rate is 50%, feel guilty : (

I think i should just stick to the band.

Just want to lose fat not muscle.

I had sx on 9/10/12, im thinking as soon as I begin pureed diet I would also like to start on hcg injections.

I was taken off of work for 6 weeks. I am an rn and he didnt want me to be lifting patients

Your welcome : )

Sounds like the psych md denied you because you seemed mentally unstable.

Dont think its necessary to mention minorities, they did not deny you!! Your case wasnt not properly presented therefore it was denied!! I am a registered nurse and provide service to bariatric patients who are approved by medical and end up being noncompliant and are gbgb's!!

Mine is located below my left rib. No wonder it hurts. Keep that area clean.

Where is your port located?

If its swollen, red or draining i would be concerned. Also if pain is getting worse or you spike a temp

Sorry wont post under wrong forum.

Lost 9lbs.

Walking promotes bowel function

Just curious to know howppl who have lap band sx get their fill
