Would love to make some new friends to accompany me on this journey, just finished all of my preop requirements and I'm just waiting for a surgery date which I hope is in September!!

I am in Naples and had a lapband since Maech 2011 and it was removed in March of this year due to me not being able to keep anything down. I am going to be sleeve in about 60 days (hoping the end of September) Who is your Dr? Dr. Bass is mine.

Hi kyrasma,

My surgery is the 20th, so 7 days to go and I am going out of my mind! Super excited and of course nervous. Dr. Sheih in ft. Myers is my doc, and I'm having surgery at Holy Cross in Ft. lauderdale. Did you have serious complications with the band, or did it just not do what you were expecting? I was born and raised in Naples and was hoping to meet a new friend locally to share the experience with :-)
