Can't sleep. I hate this band.

Been up all night dealing with nausea and anxiety. Band slipped sometime past 2 weeks and since then I have been miserable. My new surgeon took all the saline out last week in anticipation of removing it and converting me to the sleeve this Friday. Trying to let the inflammation calm down so both can be done at once. Able to take liquids ok after couple rounds of IV fluids. Just took more meds but I am not able to sleep at all. Insomnia. Hoping I can hang in there until Friday.

So sorry! Try to get some rest! Insomnia is the worst. I just woke up...it's time to head to the hospital for me. Surprisingly calm...

Good luck my fellow RN. Just remember to let someone else fluff your pillow ok?

Best of luck. Had my revision on May 6th due to Band issues and I feel great. So happy the band is out.

You will feel like a new person with a revision and at the worst at least your dreadful band will be gone. Get the nasty thing out ;)

I love my sleeve and it's the best.

Good luck and sweet dreams when you get there
