  1. So when I had my lap band placed the thing that hurt the most was the gas pains from the had they use to inflate the stomach. Any tips on what can help minimize the pains????? Thanks
  2. Yay congrats making took about 4 days too but I'm getting a revision and since I'm having problems with my lap band I think that they did it as a stat. Wish you the best
  3. So today is my last day before surgery on the 12th... I will be on a liquid diet all day today. Getting nervous. This weekend my allergies got really bad so I have a little cough right now really going they don't reschedule many surgery because of it.
  4. Oh my.... thats. All bad... I had the lap band so it was quicker to get auth because I had recently met alll the criteria due to my lap band. Well im excited and cant wait till the 12th
  5. Yay alsa buddy... they are the best and couldnt be happier with how the process was handled. just glad im getting my surgery before the year ends due to me having met my deductables. Do you go to the support group meetings?
  6. So I got the lap-band ap placed on 2/17/12 weighing 269 on surgery day. I now weigh 280-284 lbs and will be having revisional surgery on 12-12-12 ... I never felt full with the band. It was either too tight and food would get stuck or too loose... im just happy that I will have a 2nd chance at weight loss and become healthy. Im a 25 year old wife/mom of two and cant wait.
  7. Hi everyone I was finally able to figure out how to post on here. Well I will be having a lap band to gastric bypass revision on 12-12-12. Im really excited but nervous because this time I will be having a drainage bulb/tube left in and a catheter left in after surgery.. im not nervous about the actual procedure im very luck to have Dr. Higa from Fresno doing the revision and hes the best there is at what he does. Cant wait for my new life to start.
