If I have a hernia it will be repaired as well but wont cost me any more than the initial surgery fee of $16,000.

I have hypothyroid as well and will be banded on Oct. 19th. I wouldnt be doing it if my dr. thought my thyroid would be a problem. He says we will probably have to adjust the meds as I lose weight.

I am on day one and I am not allowed broth. Lucky you! My pre op diet is 3 shakes a day plus up to an additional 225 calories of veggies like broccoli, cauliflower, spinach etc. No root veggies.

61 And Just Got My Surgery Date!
kyrasgrandma replied to kyrasgrandma's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Started pre op diet today. It is going to be hard to stick to this for 2 weeks! I am not really craving food though. I just cant stomach the smell of the shakes. I put some peppermint extract in my last shake today (chocolate flavored) and it seemed to help a bit. Tasted ok, just had to hold my breath to drink...lol -

Hows The Pre Op Diet Going?
kyrasgrandma replied to secondchancesally's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Started my pre op diet today. First shake was horrible so I added some cocoa powder and vanilla extract to my chocolate lunch shake and it went down a little better. I cant stand the smell so I hold my breath while drinking...lol I am a little hungry between shakes but nothing I cant handle. -

Travelling (Canada) For Lapband -- Questions And Concerns!
kyrasgrandma replied to Shackwacky's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
There should be a list of hotels in the package they gave you (mine was emailed to me since I am 3.5 hours north of Toronto.) I am being banded on a Friday and will stay at my cousins place at least till Sunday. Then I hope I will be able to drive myself home Sunday. -
I have 3 weeks to go and I started getting sick last week. I think it has finally run its course and I am starting to feel better. I have the exact same concerns that you do.
