I had my first fill on July 17th. The next day, right where the needle had gone, I had this blood blister looking thing. Wiithin 5 days it was about the size of a dime and had a red rim around it and was filled with pus.:biggrin: What the crap??? I have been on antibiotics and cannot get rid of it. By the next time I need a fill, it will look like a big ol' bullseye! Has anyone had this issue? I have checked with a few of my friends that have been banded and no one has any idea why this happened.

I was traveling with my son and we stopped at a little out of the way diner for breakfast. I ordered oatmeal like a good mushies girl should but then "that other voice" convinced me that hashbrowns could sorta maybe if I reaaaalllly wanted them to. . . pass for a mushie. Three bites of the hashbrowns and holy freaken' cow, I was in so much pain!!! I couldn't even swallow my own spit. After getting up and down and down and up AND after watching my 13 year old eat his breakfast and mine, we got out of there. Before we could get out of town, I had to stop the van because here came those hashbrowns! I think it was probably the grease in them, but I am a believer, no greasy stuff for me anymore.

My first fill will be on July 17th! Wooo Hoooo!!!

I live in Logandale and would love to attend the August meeting. We are leaving on vacation on July 12th, so I can't be there then. This is great!

Hey there - I live in Logandale and I am having lap band surgery on June 10th:biggrin2: I am very excited and very nervous. I'm happy to see this thread and am glad that everyone seems to be healing and doing well.

I am also being banded on June 10th, and I am also a teacher! I work with young kiddos with Autism. I love it and I will love it more when I can gracefully hop up off the floor in my classroom without any issues. Go June bandsters!!!

I am being banded along with my best friend on June 10th. Somehow our girl's trip to Cancun for the big 4 0 became lap band surgery in Tihuana. I am very excited and a little nervous, the food issues have me more worked up than the surgery itself.
