  1. Carrie, I work in insurance, and see too many times, complications from surgery. You came through this by the grace of God. I believe that God teaches us a lesson in all that we do. I would not do it again. I would at least wait another year. Let your body heal. I would also see another doctor. I just had the band done 7/5/07 and am wondering what did I do. I feel okay, but I was under the impression that it would be a piece of cake. It is no cake or cakewalk. I'm hoping to get out of the house for the first time tomorrow, but it will be for a quick drive. I'm still very sore, very swollen, and feel the band. I don't know if I'm supposed to be feeling the band, but hopefully, it will get better. You want to be here for your family, so please, take your time with this and do see another doctor. I'm sure if your new doctor sees your background, they will treat you with kid gloves.
