OMG getting banded in two days!!

I literally cant breathe!!! Not sure if it's my nerves or excitement!!

Roxygirl, clarks4Willie, Beautiful-B, sews4fun and DeAna how are you feeling?

Well I was banded on Monday.No complications; it just took him extra time based on my circumstances.

My previous gallbladder and exploratory abdominal surgery had left scar tissue he had to dissect. My Hiatal Hernia was very easy to fix apparently 1 stitch in front 2 in back.

The odd part was the band placement. My Pancreas sits higher and closer to my stomach than is normal so he had to place the band higher and give me a smaller pouch so the band wouldn't interfere with my Pancreas.

Total time under was 2.5 hours.

I'm very sore though.; sitting up straight and bending r very painful. I'm trying to get in my liquids. Well off for another cat nap then to make a few phone calls.

Aug 28th for me too. Way excited.
