    Hi Seth,

    I am also having my surgery done in Victoria, by Dr. Tang. My surgery date isn't until Nov 16 because I am traveling from Kelowna. I don't have any personal experiences yet obviously.. But would be great to keep in touch! :)

    I was just banded in Sudbury on Monday....welcome. (I had to travel for my surgery due to wanting to be close to family for recovery). So far so good.

    Seth, ask away. (I am only limited to 4 days of experience.)

    Good luck to everyone.
