Mine was yesterday and it was at a surgical center. As soon as I opened my eyes they told my dh to pull the car around, lol. I really felt like I needed a few minutes to fully wake up, but they were helping me dress and walking me to the door! My surgery was supposed to begin at 12:45, but I think it started a little early, but anyway I was out of there at 2:30.

I was banded yesterday, Dec 18 and I feel great. I didn't even need my pain meds today, pain is very mild!

I am having surgery in Nashville on Tuesday. I live in Clarksville, but my Dr. sent me to Vanderbilt because they are a Center of Excellence. Dr. Holzman is preforming my surgery. Cenntennial Hospital is also a Center of Excellence, so both places would be great choices. I will let you know what I think of my Dr. when the surgery is over, lol!
