Hello All,
I'm 4 days post op and what a journey!
I had a band for 12 years which eroded and had to be urgently removed. My band did its job, but I gained lots of weight after removal. So, a revision to bypass was my option. I can tell you I was a complicated case due to adhesions and the discovery of 2 hernias. My poor wittle belly!
I just wanted to add it will be great getting out of my fat suit and into my skinny suit again. All this pain is worth the long term result of being healthy!
I love hearing others stories. It's a great way to support each other. Thank you. It's nice to know I'm not alone on this journey.
