  1. How Did You Feel Physically After Lap Band Removal

    Ritamelvin replied to Libralin's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
    I'm having my lapband out in5 days, I cannot wait; I've been ill with bloating and nausea for the last 2 1/2 months. Can't go out with friends, just feel awful. I've had the band for exactly 2 years. Never lost weight. Maybe it wasn't ever placed correctly, but it has to GO!!!

  2. I dont Understand :(
