Went to my pre-op appt. today and I'm getting excited and scared at the same time which I'm sure is normal. But I found out my dr. Uses Realize band instead of lap-band I'm not sure how I feel about this. For the last 4 months preparing for surgery I have only researched lap-band. I start my 9 day liquid diet Sunday so I have a little time to look into this but if anybody has any info to offer I would appreciate it. The dr. Did tell me it has a smaller low profile port which I have to admit I like the idea of that.
