Good news is my mom is finally starting to get it. She agreed that if I could have my tubes tied while I have the band done that it would be worth it. I am 36 & have my boy & girl so I am done w/ having kids. Has anyone else had both surgeries done together? I am scared of what that recovery would be like, but my gyn said they could coordinate the surgery with my surgeon. At least my mom has finally agreed to help me with the kids. I am planning to have the surgery done before March 1st so I feel good enough to go to Disney World w/ my kids on spring break the last weekend in March.

I dont think it should cause any delay in your recovery, 2 procedures done, 1 operation. right on. I had my tubes tied 24 years ago, same procedure. I asked my Doc. if things have improved since than and it has. good luck

I should have had my tubes tied--darn it!

I had a hiatal hernia repaired that actually required 2 surgical procedures at the same time as I had the lap band replaced.
