    Good luck! I too am getting banded today. Surgery was originally moved from 8am to noon and then moved to 3. Now I have to be there at 4. The waiting is killing me not to mention I am thirsty and hungry!

    Well this time I made it as far as getting into the gown, blood pressure taken and was waiting for the IV then the nurse came over to say how sorry she was but that the doctor had someone coming in by ambulance for emergency surgery. So with that being said, my surgery is now July 1st and I am going to have a nice dinner!!! Yikes.

    Sorry for the delay. It will come soon! I had a five hour delay while laying all prepped when I had mine.
