aww, thank you! That makes me feel better! I've heard its some pretty awesome sleep!!

I was worried too .....but it was easy procedure and gives a TON of important information.

Enjoy the lovely sleep- so peaceful.

Another go thing about having this now 1) like Jack said, a lot of useful info with test. I found out I had silent reflux with esphogitis erosion. If I hadn't had the test it could have turn into cancer.

2) It gives you a great short prelude to what going under for LBS will be like.

First you're there and next thing you know you're there again, like was I really out for an hour?

WOW! Good thing you had this done when you did! I'm happy you're ok!

My test is over, and yes, when they woke me up, I was mad it was so short! lol Dr. said I am cleared for surgery.. I have no issues what so ever! YAY!

After the first one I woke up and asked when we were going to get started. Then had to have second one because I will be having 2 doctors and 2 surgeries. One to repair hiatal hernia and then install the band. When I was told there would be two doctors involved, all I could say was, "Wow, what a paradox!" One of the nurses came at me with something pointy so I did not make any more jokes. Just sleep and you will enjoy.

Glad it went well!
