  1. Congrats Jacquelene!! I am so happy for you, sounds like everything is going great so far. Anne. my anxiety was is large part due to my agoraphobia from horrible events that have happen to me in my past that I have since worked though and I am now in a better place then I was back in 09. When I got the lapband done tho we went through a place that treated us as cattle, that is how it felt, hurry up in and hurry up out. Not to mention every time I went to get a fill it was with a new Dr. because the old Dr. had left. Dr. Suh my doctor now is pretty great and I know I will have him through out this whole process, so I will not have that same anxiety issues that I did then. However I am still curious what anxiety you are having post op?
  2. Good luck!!!! My surgery is on March 10th and I will be having it all done at once. I am pretty nervous but excited as well. Let us know how you are doing since you just had your band removed!
  3. I have had the lap band in since 2009 and have had many issues with it, not just due to the band itself but also my anxiety and agoraphobia, it got so bad that doctors actually refused to see me. =( I am curious how many have had the band to sleeve revision all at the same time? I see it is very common to have the band removed then sometime later getting the sleeve surgery. I am very nervous about the pain and what I might need to expect? Also any tips for making it easier after surgery would be awesome! <3
