  1. Any January 2010 Bandsters????

    wen2911 replied to DB1119's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
    I was banded on Monday January 11th 2010. The surgery went well and they said that I sailed through with flying colors. Three days later I developed a fever and diahrrea -called the surgeon and they recommended that I go to the closest ER. After an x-ray, Cat scan and blood work the diagnosis was colitis. Apparently the antibiotics given during surgery kill everything including the good bacteria in the body. They went ahead and admitted me and treated the infection with antibiotics and IV fluids to keep me from becoming dehydrated. After 2 days my labs came back normal and they sent me home today. Has anyone else ever had this issue? I'm curious if it is common.
