Hello everybody!

I am officially banded and minus a gallbladder. I don't seem to feel like they took anything though. I am sore and the gas is s-l-o-w-l-y leaving me. Lets just say I put my husband to shame in the "fart game" Ha ha!

I think the worst part is the post op pain.

Thanks for all your support and I'll be in touch.

Congratulations on your surgery! I wish you a speedy recovery!

I am so excite for you!! You beat your husband!! Way to go, did you have a blue flame contest yet??

Oh yeah, congrats on the band thing too..

I know, I have a sick humor!!

Congrats on your double operation. I need my gallbladder out too, and saw a bariatric surgeon who said I needed a lapband too - and he could do both at the same time.

Which came first for you - the need for a lapband or the removal of the gallbladder?

I'm 64 and quite worried about having a double operation.

Thanks everyone for your great thoughts.

Adman,

I didn't know I needed my gallbladder out til I started with my prerequisites for surgery. They did an ultrasound and it said I had polyps. The CT said the same thing.

The polyps turned out to be a gallbladder full of gallstones, not polyps.

Hopefully insurance will cover that being removed also.

Good luck, Schel.
