Hello today is the big day .

I am getting a revision from the lap band to the sleeve , I go in at 9:30 am .

I had the band put in twice the first time I contracted h pilorie or what ever it was which caused a lot of vomiting and acid . Which Inturn caused the band to bend the stomach. So they took it out but before they did I lost a 100 pounds I was 430 when I had the band drop to 330 .

Then they put it in again but just maintained it . But then I started having problems , they now are saying it is bending the stomach and some of the fluid is missing .so now today I will get the sleeve I gained 20 pounds unfortunately .so I am up to 350 ..looking forward for the new lifestyle and hopefully no more constant hunger pains that never seem to get satisfied .

Thank you Jenn1

your more than welcome......you sound like a pro at all this. Hows your nerves?

I am pretty nervous not about the surgery but complications happing like leaks or any thing else

But that's my only worry

Nerves are normal...l would be more nervous for someone who felt like this is going to be a cake walk. I hope all is well and you're on to recovery.

Lol as I get in the prep area I am getting nervous .. I at a good hospital and have a good dr David suh at Loma Linda Murrieta .. I been reading the blogs more and that got me a little scared

Well I am 5 days out of surgery : ) all I want to do is sleep .. And no pain meds needed .. I have a dull ache but that's about it ..I had my first bowl movement .. Thought I was a baby again never been so excited for one lmao .. I seem to drink water ok and broth I have no desirer to eat anything nor does my dr want me to eat any thing

Oh good to hear back from you.

I'm going home from the hospital today.I have a d

What's a d ?

My cell phone died. ..a d is a drain

Congratulations to both of you! Hope all is going well and that you are feeling better by the day.

What's a drain. ?

Well I went to my dr appointment on tue,

May 30 I was 357 for surgery and tue the 17 I was down to 328 every thing looks good he said . The dr feel the heartburn is from the conspation and once I get regular it will go away ..

Told the dr I was taxing both nexium and Pepcid both seem to clear it up the heart burn .
