I'm November 9th! So excited, scared, blessed, cranky from pre-diet! LOL I'm just a bag if emotions :) I'm outside Jacksonville, Florida.

I am scheduled for November 1. I feel how you feel. Anxious and excited.

November 8th in Iowa!

I'm November 1st in Houston, Tx. HELP ME: I'm sooooo sick to my stomach and I can't sleep at nite. I'm having a revision from a lap band and I'm so scared of what he's going to find when he takes the band off. :huh:

I feel the same way as you!! Im like what if the band has done to much damage and now i cant get the surgery... Well if I cant get the surgery until afterwards I would rather be safe then sorry. So go and get it taken out at least that is start so you dont have to worry about any other complications, associated with the band. You will be fine Im sure I will say a prayer for us and let god work his magic!!!

Nov 1 for me in MI. Can't wait til it's over. Just tidying up last minute things. planning on taking one week off from work thinking should be enough . Pretty flexible at work with my assignments in the OR. Getting fluids in my only concern

I did have a EGD done that came out okay, but most people dont know how much damage and scare tissue the lap band causes on the stomach and Ive had mine for 5yrs. :(

Thank you so much for keeping me in ur prayers. Im glad to know Im not the only one out there with this concern of scar tissue and the damange the band might have done. Dont get me wrong, I have done well with it, Im just ready to get it out and move on with my life.
