I went in for the consultation yesterday and due to the fact I pre paid I have a surgery date of August 18th. I am so nervous. Does any one have any advise about what to expect and what I might need?:tt2:

Hi ya....congrats!! I'm getting banded on the same date. I understand about nerves, I am as well and anxious, and excited. So many emotions!!! Apparently its not all that bad, is over quick and not much to worry about. Here are some stuff I got today that other ppl have suggested I will need.

Shopping list for post-surgery:

· Gas X strips

· Gauze to cover incisions/tape

· Protein in form I can stand

· Full Liquids-On Approved List

· liquid Tylenol

· Chewable Vitamins

· Wet wipes

· CHAPSTICK!!!!!

Yay thanks gOOdbyefat I needed a consolidated list!
