  1. Ok so I had my surgery on 4/10 and actually already went back to work. I feel great! However I do have a question about the port. See I have one place which is under my breast a little that is sore and under the skin it feels like the port. There is def something in there!!! However, on my right side in the middle of my stomach there is anoter incision that feels like there is kinda something hard underneath that too! What is going on? I am so crazy but I feel like I am one of those patients that has a medical tool left in them. Does anyone else know what this could be? Could my incision just feel hard? Please help me understand what is going on!!
  2. I never thought that it would happen but my surgery is finally scheduled for April 10th. All I have to do is my nuclear stress test. Has anyone had that? Any last words of advice. I am nervous a little but it still doesn't seem real!!:cursing:
  3. So my name is Jessica. I have an appointment on Wednesday with a doctor to discuss the band. I have been to a seminar and just found out that my insurance will pay for the surgery. I am only 24 but have been overweight my whole life and just want to get to experience life without having so much extra weight. I live in CT. Just wanted to say hi!
