I am being banded April 17. Was supposed to have been banded March 6' date=' but my platelets were too low. Many blood tests and other tests later, they just decided I have low platelets normally. Anyway, I am hoping nothing postpones my surgery again! I was within a week of having it last time![/quote']

I had something similar happen! I was supposed to be banded last Nov.

6 more days excited! :)

I am going on a business trip tomorrow and will be back Wednesday. Last minute errands on Thursday and then Friday I start my journey! So excited!

My surgery is April 19th. I started the liver diet this morning....so excited and nervous!! Hope the time flys....seems like it gets slower the closer it gets to the 19th!!!

That happened to me...time was flying by and then seemed to virtually halt, but it is picking back up again. My surgery is the 10th. Maybe it is when you get within a week of your procedure that time gets going again!

IVC filter put in today kind of sore but fine. Liquid diet starts 4/12/13 looking forward to count down.

1 day postop and doing well. Only pain is surgery site. I have liquid Lortab for pain, and I was able to sleep comfortably in my bed last night.

My surgery has been changed til April 15th because my surgery has something come up and can't do it on my original date of the 8th. I understand - but it's so hard waiting another week when I had everything set up - hotel, meals for the family all prepared, hubby's time off from work. Uugh - so difficult to wait. Just thankful that his pre-op diet is just 2 days of liquid and pretty much what I've been eating otherwise.

WOW TOMORROW IS MY DAY.KEEP ME UP IN PRAYER.
