METALBAND

Hey Cindyluhu...you date is coming soon, Where are you being banded? I will be at BIDMC on the 21st. Just had my gall bladder out there yesterday. It feels like a starter surgery just to get me in the mood!! Good Luck Maureen

I cannot get mine to work either.....it just says invalid file after I save changes. I have tried everything and I feel really dumb!!! Any help would be appreciated, Thanks, Maureen

FYI-I just found b-12 liquid at Brooks Pharmacy

WOW...not an easy task getting home for you. My ride home (1 hour) will be like a piece of cake. Again, thanks for all the replies.....What a great group of people!

The only surgery's that I have had were c-sections and I couldn't have lived without the medicine pump. I guess I thought the pain would be similar. I am glad to hear that I will not need heavy drugs! Thanks for the info.

Thanks for all the replies.....my doc wants in patient, insurance wants out patient! I was just wondering what was the norm. I would rather stay overnight with the nice pain killer button at my fingertips!!!! Thanks for the tip on the ride home. I will tell DH to avoid the bumps! Next stop the ticker factory!

My insurance co will not pay for overnight stay. They claim it is out patient surgery. Just wondering if most of you stay overnight or do come home the same day? Thanks......I will be banded on 5-21!!!!

70 lbs.....You are my hero!!! I cannot wait to be banded, May 21st!!!

I will be banded on May 21st also with Dr Schneider at BIDMC!! It seems like so long to wait but it will give me time to lose a few pounds first. I am like and emotional rollercoaster. I am not having second thoughts but I go from scared to excited and everything in between!!!

Hello All, I am new here and have tons of questions but my first is "shouldn't we be the Mass Bandsta's"????? You all sound like such a good group, I cannot wait to have my surgery and be able to offer advise and support too.
