  1. I do not see my surgeon for another 2 weeks . Can you let me know what your surgeon says.
  2. Did any of you have restrictions on lifting? If so for how long?
  3. My coworker was sleeved beginning of Jan and the doctor has not cleared him because of what we do. I was just curious
  4. How much time was everyone out of work for? I am hoping my doctor will let me stay out 6 to 8 weeks after surgery . I work with people with mental health issues. I have to do a lot of restraining people.
  5. Laura-ven did you have your surgery already ?
  6. I am also new here. Looked into the Band last year but never followed up. On Jan 8 2013 I went in for a seminar which turned into a consultation .
