Congratulations on your band! I'm glad to hear everything is going well. Just keep sipping liquid and make sure you get enough walking in to keep the gas at bay!

I got to stay overnight too and was more than happy to! Can you say - pain meds in my vein!

Congrats and I hope your transition at home is smooth. Remember to walk around the house and you will feel better, faster. I look forward to hearing how you are doing!

Hi.

Thanks! I had to stay overnite in the hospital because my surgeon chooses to do that to make sure everything is ok. And it was. He did surgery at 9am. I went to my room at 1130 am and the next morning I had a swallow study at 7am to make sure the band wasnt leaking. Then I was able to start clear liquids. I went home around 3pm that day. :-)
