Hour and half ride home didn't bother me and my pillow. Band removal and replacement only took a little over an hour. No complications! Yeh!!! They confirmed the leak, which suprisingly was in the band itself and not the tubing or port. I guess you could say I had a flat tire. I am feeling pretty good now. I am sure thanks to the pain meds. Sipping Water for my sore throat.

Hope all the others banded today are as fortunate.

Thank you all for your well wishes! I am staying up a little while longer so I can take my pain meds before going to bed. I am walking like a little old lady, but hey... I made me a walking path thru the house (10 mini laps) to use every hour. In the morning, I plan on walking to the end of the cul de sac and back (5 houses down and back).

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
