Hey... look who poked her head in! Congratulations! I'm glad to hear it went so well! That's really comforting to hear right about now.

"Wonderful" and "delightful"? Hmm... is somebody still on pain meds?! :tongue2:

*hi harleyhottie - they usually send you home with a script for pain meds (or give you one prior so you can fill it ahead of time). Some of us will be in and out same day; others will stay over night - it varies.

2 sleeps till banding and the anxiety has kicked in BIG time. BREATHING sLowLy..... Still excited!!

Good luck to those banded today and those being banded tomorrow. Thinking of you all :tongue2: (((HUGS)))

Congrats Larry ! Good luck with the journey.. I'm getting banded on Dec 11

My stomach just turned into knots. I just realized that by tomorrow this time I will either be banded or still in surgery......

GULP! Ok, now I'm more nervous than excited....:tongue2:

I am home from surgery, stayed one night in the hospital, have 6 incision spots, 5 are about an inch long and the 6th where the port is is about 3 to 4 inches long. No stitches they used super glue. Really feeling pretty darn good in fact much better then anticipated. Pain medication is a combo of Tylenol and Oxic.. something or another. Will remain on clear liquid till next Tuesday when I go in for check up. Terri
