Feb Dates Anyone?



Recommended Posts

Hi bandtobypass's,

I will be having my band to bypass revision on Feb 6th, excited and nervous is the feeling... Hopefully this will conclude my weight-loss journey

No more stuck feeling, saliva producing hours of fun... Since 2008 at 250 pounds and one revision of the band due to leak 50

Pound loss has become only 15 pounds. Sad but true I am lapband challenged. Found out that women have the tougher time

Than men. Go figure... Here's hoping my scar tissue isn't to bad, my gallbladder looks good, i have no leaks and if any tubes or catheters have to

Be placed they are removed before I get discharged......

Good luck!!!! I'm a band to bypass as well except one of the unlucky ones that when he removed my band had too much scary issue and inflammation so got sent home for 6 months to heal :/. Six long darn months!!! I'm up for the actual revision on Feb. 11 and oh so ready!!! There's a thread called Fabulous February under pre-op that has all the Feb folks!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
