Were You Prescribed Pills Post-Op...
texas2penn posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was reading the thread about taking pills post-op and wondered if there was anyone who was not on any medication pre-op and needed to be prescribed pills post-op. I know people who have GBS have to take supplements post-op and wondered if LBS patients have to do the same? Still researching!! Kelly -
Well after many many many hours on the computer and phone, my DH has set a date for surgery. We decided to go with Dr. Ortiz and his surgery date is February 23rd :clap2: He is very excited, and so am I. I am so happy for him. Even though I am super nervous about leaving the kids for that long. Our 20 month old has never stayed without us before. Today we sent filled out and faxed all the paperwork and paid the deposit. I booked the flight for both of us and now we just have to wait! Thanks to everyone for their advice. Even if I didn't ask the question, most things I wondered about had been asked before and folks answered. This message board has been a blessing I'll keep ya'll posted!

Hi! My name is Kelly and this is the first time I have been to this site :biggrin1: My husband and I are considering lap band surgery and have loads of questions. I'll probably be lurking around reading some posts to get my bearings around here, but if anyone has any advice for us I'd appreciate it! My husband and I own a small business in PA and currently do not have private insurance. While researching the surgery, my husband ran across a site that offers lap band surgery in Mexico for much less than what would be charged in the US......anyone with experience? Can't wait to read around and get to know some of ya! Thanks :nervous
