Hi everyone! My surgery got moved last week- from today to next Wednesday, the 15th. I'm a little glad, for it has given me a little more time to get ready. I am part of the Swedish Band clinical trial and was given about a week to get ready for my first surgery date. That just was a little too soon for me. Luckily, things work out for the best and my new date is not soon enough now. I"M READY!

Anyone else a part of the study? We should chat!!

I hated that mine was moved but I only had to wait 2 days.

BEST OF LUCK TO YOU!

Thanks for your good wishes. I started my clear liquid diet today, and have to take that Fleet Phosphosoda stuff this afternoon. NOt looking forward to that! I really am ready this time...and can't wait to join the rest of you that are banded.

I told all of my family yesterday- aunts, uncles, cousins. They were so excited for me and no one made any desparaging comments or said anything negative. I have the best family in the world!

Thanks again,

Megan

Megan, I'll be thinking about you on Wednesday. That's so great that your family is supportive! It really helps when people aren't always making disparaging comments.

Good luck!! :P

Oh wow, it's almost time. I had to go on liquids right before my surgery too, and I think that was the hardest part of the whole deal. Good luck.
