My tentative surgery date is July 23rd because of my work schedule. It may change by a week but it looks like I'm gonna be a July baby. Anyone else out there that will be banded in July?

Yes, I just found out today that my insurance has approved and I'm scheduled for surgery july 24th! - nervous and excited!

If you don't cope with pain very well tell your Dr they will get you meds to help you cope. I am sure no one wants you to suffer . Just remember to take them When I had surgery in the past I was so sleepy I went to bed and when I woke up the meds from the surgery had worn off and my body reminded me very quickly that I had just had surgery I know you will do extremely well nothing to worry about your just take a nap wake up and it's done. good Luck

Thanks I have it on my list. ???Š

OK IM GETTING BANDED ON THE 5 TH AN THE NERVES R STILL OK HOPE IT LAST

My date is July 9th. I start my liquid diet tomorrow. I'm excited about this journey. Afraid of the pain... No pain no gain!
