I am all set for June, 8th. I am having the surgery done in Mexico at Star Medica with DR Natera. I find that the only thing I talk about is "lap band". I also find that I am calling my friends and saying lets go out to lunch before i get banded because I know that the old ways of eating must change and will change. I have spoke with my fill Dr here in the USA . DR Stephanie Eijsink and she seems very nice and will see me 6 weeks after surgery. I also seem to having lots of dreams that are related to lap band and the surgery.. This happening to anyone else ?
