Hi Guys, I was banded on 8/5/08 and it ended up being open surgery rather than laposcopy. I was wondering if anyone knows how long the recovery might be and when you think that I might be able to return to work. It's already been over two weeks and I am still very sore. I haven't been able to do much, even sitting here at my computer is painful. Also, does anyone know what I can put on my scar so that it will heal. I'm still bleeding a little from it. Thanks for any and all advise.

I think that anything that you come up with is going to be fabulous!!!! I l really like the one you have with you name on it that has the flowers, that's really cool. I also like the blues & purples. And me too, I'm so sorry for being a butt with some of my posts. I'm glad your here with us!!

That's not very nice, if you're going to post here and be a part of this group, the you should be a part of this group and go with the name that we all collectively vote on. Don't separate yourself by having a different name from the rest of us. Join us and have the same name as us. Since you are so good at designing, maybe you should create the banner on the name that's the winner.

Have fun!!!!!!

Honey, YOU are a motivation to all of us!!!!!!!!!!! Great Job!!!

By the way, when you say 5 little monkeys, do you mean children or are they real monkeys? I only ask because when I was a kid my Dad had a real monkey......it was cool!

Good Idea Momto5, a vote is always best!

I sure did too!! But I'm over it now..............I say that now! But I bet ya the day before my liquid diet starts I will be at Black Angus ordering 3 orders of their garlic cheese bread and eating them all myself!!!!!!!!!!!! That darn bread is my weakness..........and post band I'm hoping that I can at least have a small bite or two............if not, I'm going to figure out a way to blender it...either that or just lick it!
-
I like it!!! I vote for that!!!

OK guys, we have to come up with a name......I was able to come up with Jazzy Junes (I was once a potential June bandster) but for August......I got nothing! Any Suggestions?

I too start the liquid diet on the 22............In addition to the liquid diet, I have to start the lovenox shots (history of blood clot in lung) which in the past has made my crazy, forgetful and depressed for no reason..................I've already warned my family, friends and work to look out!!!!!
Congrads to Ahsem2bme on your date!!!!!!!
Anyone W/Diabetes/Low Sugar Problems Post-Op
in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums

I have diabetes and I was banded 8/5/08. I too wondered if I would have lows. I haven't and it really surprises me. I use to have them quite often prior to my surgery. For like a week after my surgery I refused to take my metformin. My levels were great so I didnt think that I needed it. When I was able to go on mushies and reg food, I started up with my metformin again but at half the does. It seems to be fine now, my numbers are pretty good. Once loose a little more weight I believe that I will be off the meds all together.
