Lap Band With Gastric Plication

I feel like a bag of assholes.

I had to spend an extra night in the hospital because of the nausea. I'm home now and still nauseous, can't keep down the pain meds and am apparently screaming in my sleep because it hurts to move.

Does anybody have any experience with this? How long can I expect this nausea to carry on?

Welcome! What does your pre-op diet consist of?

We should have a group...Plication Pioneers? I know that plication is really starting to catch on and it would be nice if those considering it would be able to find out information in an easy way. I know that I was desperately looking on here for any info on it.

I think this is a terrific idea! Also in regards to your question about how soon after approval I got the surgery date: my doctor only operates Mondays and Tuesdays' date=' he literally got me in the following Tuesday :). By the way today was day six and I feel great!

I agree that there should be a plication group... So hard to find info on it!

Glad to hear you're feeling great!

I would be happy to answer any questions you have about it being 8 months out from this surgery.

Plication Pioneers! Love it

Hi Touria and Bromo- how was the nausea for the first few days after surgery. I've heard it's bad. Nervous about that.

I'm having my lap band/plication in two days!!! Wish me luck!!!!!

Awesome! I keep hearing about people that have to do liquids for 2 weeks! I was getting worried. Whew! How long did it take you to get a surgery date after your insurance approved you?

I did mine for two weeks! I'm on day 12. It's easier! Day 1-3 were the hardest! Lost 12 pounds not bad! In two days I will be plicated!!!
