Lap Band with Plication



Recommended Posts

I'm considering having the lap band with plication. My surgery is scheduled for the 20th of this month. I'm a little nervous since the plication still under study. Has anyone had both procedures done?

I had both done last December and am happy too. All my fills are done under fluro and my doctor would wait for the barium to move through to check the plication too during my early visits. No issues at all with the plication.

I had both done on 3/25. I was nervous about the added plication too, but I'm really glad that I had it done. No problems whatsoever, and I'm down 56 pounds. Happy!

No hospital stay.

Had a hernia repaired also.

I was off work for two weeks and felt I needed all that time.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
