I just had mine out 9 days ago - it is an out patient procedure. I haven't been banded yet but it was easier than my 2 c-sections.

I was in surgery at 6:30pm - in recovery by 8pm - had a percoset at 9:30p and then tylenol for a couple of days after. I had my surgery on 8/18 and returned to work on 8/22 and felt fine (no heavy lifting!)

I wasn't having attacks but the stones showed up on an ultra sound in my pre-op screening for the band so out it came.

Good luck - You will do fine if that is what is wrong.

Hi guys,

I have been lurking just waiting for something to share and collecting a bunch of great info from everyone. Thanks!

I finally got my Ins. approval - no more hurdles! I am going to be banded on 9/12/05.

Just wanted to share.

Thanks!
