    October Surgery Roll Call

    10/10 band to sleeve revision! Wish me luck! :)
  3. Hi! Anyone that has gone from LB to RNY: I have the LB and get stuck ALL. The. time. Even when I am unfilled! Is there a similar sensation with the RNY? I know the procedures are very different, but didn’t know if there was a similar, terrible feeling when you don’t chew enough or eat too much/fast. Thanks! Amanda
  4. Hi! Anyone with Kaiser SoCal (Inland Empire) that has a revision from band to RNY? If so, did the surgeon do the revision in one or two surgeries? Thanks!! I feel so in the dark throughout this whole (lengthy) process! Amanda

    Hi! Was your friend’s revision from a band to RNY? If so, did your friend have her revision in one or two surgeries? I have Kaiser and I hope it’s done in one surgery :)
  6. Hi! I posted this in the revision board but that board is a ghost town :) haha. Am en route to have my lapband revised to the RNY (most likely- not sold on the sleeve...) and I am trying to figure out how much time off from work I need. When I had the lapband surgery, I spent a day in the hospital with gas pains and just a little sore. If I had the job I have now back then (middle school teacher- so I can be fairly sedentary if needed) I think I would’ve been able to go back to work within a few days. I mean, I just had a baby with no drugs, had to be stitched and I was going on long walks the day after. I also had ankle reconstruction and went back to work in 4 days (including a weekend). Not saying that I am super tough, just a seasoned surgery patient- there are way more that I could list :) Those who have had both surgeries, how do you think the recovery time and pain compares? Thanks! Amanda
