  19. Hello, all! I was banded on 12/4. Dr. Stitched my esophagus because he said it was too wide and hence why I had reflux. Dr. Also filled band 5cc. Has anyone else been filled at time of surgery?
  20. Today is day two. No problems so far, moderate pain. Clear liquid diet until next Thursdays. Lost 6 lbs so far,no preop diet until 48 hrs prior,
