Congratulations, this is a great accomplishment.:thumbup:

I wanted to wish everyone being banded this week good luck. I was banded on the 13 th of october. Things are going well so far. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

I was just banded wed oct.13. So far i don't feel too bad. I arrived for surgury at 11:00 am. I was taken to my room in day surgury got undressed and changed into my gown. The nurse came in to start my iv and take a little bloodwork. The nurse went over my schedule for the morning. The morning went by very quickly. They put some medication in my iv and wheeled me down the hall for surgury. I fell asleep before they even gave me the anestisa. I woke up with a little pain. They gave me some pain medicine it worked right away. They then took me down the hall for my bariam test. I had to drink a sickly sweet drink and they looked through an xray machine to make sure it was passing through my stomach. They took me back to my room. Checked my vitals gave me a glass of water, went the bathroom. Then i was headed home about 6:00pm. I have not been to uncomfortable. I have been keeping up with my medications and being careful getting up and down. Walking really helps with the gas pains and so does gas x. Overall everything went smoothly.

I am happy to hear everyone is doing well after surgury.I will be banded in three days. I am starting to get a little nervous. Also I am very hungry. Good Luck to everyone being banded this week.
