  1. Good morning everyone. well it has been almost 24 hours since I got my band. Still having cotton mouth, I little bit of soreness. Other than that am not hungry yet still waiting to see how I will feel today. Cannot wait for the cotton mouth to go away. Have a great day everyone!
  2. Everything went fine feel good just a little sleepy had my band done at 9:45 and was home by 1pm . Thanks for asking dearlh
  3. Had my surgery at 9:30 am this morning and was home by 1pm. Did barium swallow and had hernia fixed. Aside from sleeping I am doing great! No gas pains just a little shakey and alot of cotton mouth. 1 cc in band . Did anyone on here have theirs done today as well? I went into this with a positive attitude and came out with the same. I feel if you take what you read on here good, bad or indifferent, retain what applies to your situation, and keep positive things will be fine for you and you will have a great outcome. It is always good to be prepared for all events. I wish you all success and good luck ! :wub:

If I were you I would check with my dr because originally I was scheduled for the 2/27, but because when I got the call about being approved I was not told to do the pre op diet,therefor like you I thought the same and when I went to my pre op appointment I was told differently and they had to reschedule my surgery.
