So, i am planning on doing the lap band very soon..still in the beginning processed, but i was wondering..after the surgery, are you allowed to swallow any pills? i take birth control pills for my PCOS and they aren't very big, but wouldn't they get stuck? just curious..thanks!

hi, there! i live in st louis and i am considering the lap band...i have been to the seminar, met with my doctor, and have my psch eval tomorrow...i am SSOOOOOO nervous and still trying to decide if this is the right thing for me. i am 5'6" and weigh about 290lbs, so i need help!! ahh..i have tried diets, excercise, pills, blah, blah, blah...and yes..i lose some weight but ALWAYS put it all back on and then some...so, i want to know more about this if anyone wants to share their experiences with me..thanks!
