How long did your surgery take?

Surfing the web and seeing some you tube videos. I wondered exactly how long does the actual surgery take? Has anyone had any horrible complications, which took a little longer then normal? My surgery date is wednesday the 29th and all these last minute questions keep coming up. Sooo nervous and excited at the same time. Thanks guys!!

Gas pains anyone?

So.... im scheduled for my lap-band surgery on april 29th. Today I had my pre op visit. Xrays, barium swallow, ekg, and blood work. It's all soo real now! I was told that there will be a tube down my throat to help me breath. Has anyone experienced any problems with the gas that is pumped inside when you wake up?

Just Curious?

What kind of diet did you have to be on before you got banded? My doctor has me on a liquid diet for 4 weeks! Today makes the 22nd day. I'm scheduled to get banded on the 29th of april. I have 1 week exactly to go. I'm just curious what requirements other doctors have given to patients. Thanks alot guys!!!

How long did it take for you to be able to lay on your stomach?

4/29 I had my surgery. Instead of the standard 4 incisions I only have 1 incision. I wanted to know how long did it take in order to sleep on your stomach. It's getting uncomfortable only sleeping on my back. If anyone can give me any ideas or tips that can make it a little easier to sleep would be great. Thanks!
