I'm so excited 2 start my journey with the lapband! But I'm also

really nervous about tommorow! Anyone who can tell me wat to

excpect in the morning would be much appreciated!! ;0)

It's really not so bad, I was surprised that I was not in the least bit scared. They give you good drugs as soon as you are in the OR and when you wake up it's all over. Take the pain drugs they offer you, and get up and walk as soon as possible. You'll be tired and sore for a week or so, one thing they don't tell you about is the big pinch in your side where the sew your port to your abdominal muscles. But it all goes away after a while. Good luck tomorrow, you won't regret this decision!

Praying all goes great for you. I was banded yesterday. Take the drugs they give you. I wasn't and was in a lot of pain. Now I am taking it like the bottle says and feeling much better. ALSO - buy some Gas X thin strips that melt on your tongue. The pain I have is bad gas and it's really helping.

Can't wait to hear how yours went!!!

Pd & swan girl thank u both so much for the Info!! I already feel

better about tommorow! I know this will b the best Thing I could

ever do for myself and my family!
