I'll start with the second call first, the nurse from my PCP's office called and told me all my blood work was GREAT! I can't believe I don't have high anything......lol - I mean really, I should be happy but so help me if I wasn't trying to have this surgery it wouldn't have all come back horrible. I had gestational diabetes three different times, I figured at least my blood sugars would be off, I'm 130 lbs overweight! Still waiting on the sleep study results...

Okay, other phone call, my friend "the nurse" called me with more info about the lapband (like I haven't read it all already, lol), but bless her for caring! She doesn't really get that the band is safer, she thinks I should go with the bypass - actually she thinks I should go with nothing, but if I have to do it, than the bypass. Of course she's never weighed over 120 (probably not even when she was nine months pregnant!) so her interest in WLS is min to none! But she was telling me all about the band growing into your stomach, and the band slipping, and the port, etc.... she said you have to always have it adjusted and how much it hurts.... why did I tell anyone? :eek:
