  1. Hi everyone i'm Tanya I have not had the surgery as of yet, I am currently waiting for my surgery date. And I find myself in a internal battle one day I am dead set on getting the sleeve, than i'll read an article or a post about it and I sway to the band than i'll hear something regarding that. I have had several talks with my surgeon about this but he tells me to weigh everything and do what I think is best. Which by the way isn't at all helpful. I went to my first support group tonight and it scared the hell out of me, I am not at all worried or nervous about the actual surgery. I am however incredibly anxious and nervous about the GI tube and Drain, weird I know but I figure once they take 3/4 of my stomach I have no choice but to deal with it. So if anyone has any suggestions, thoughts, opinions etc i'd greatly appreciate it. Tanya
