I would ask what to bring to the hospital, how long the procedure would take, staying over at the hospital?, post op diet guidlines, when will the followup appt be, will he give you your prescriptions ahead of time.

I hope everything goes well today, good luck, and congrats on the start of your journey.

I would ask about the fill schedule after being banded....seems they are not all alike

I didn't ask and was suprised to learn my surgeon has filled spaced 12wks apart!! I just assumed that my fills would be pretty much the same as most everyone elses I've read about, boy was I mistaken!
