Hi everyone! I am a newbie and I am to be banded on April, 15th 2011. I am pretty excited but also nervous as all get out! My question is: Has anyone on the forum been banded while having lymphedema? I have lower limb lymphedema on the left hand side. I have frequent bouts of cellulitus and was wondering if that had been a problem for any of the other bandsters out there? Also, my healing tends to be very slow due to the lymphedema so naturally I am a lil nervous about that as well. Any advice would be great! Thanx! Mari
