Gallbladder and lapband surgeries
buckeyegirl4 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I just had my gallbladder removed a month ago and I am still struggling. I still want my lapband. If anyone has the same experience, how long did you wait to have the lapband after gallbladder surgery? Please help! -

Thanks all for the great info. My GB is already gone but I still want the LB. I had no idea they could do both at the same time. Honestly knowing what I know now about my recovery, I don't think I would do it that way. I am a slow and PAINFUL healer apparently :-( I still want the LB. -
Is this an emergency? Band Slippage.

For those who have had both the band and gb removed, what is the comparison as far as pain, recovery and diet? I will never give up on my band, it's only delayed!! Thank you so much

Gallbladder removed today
buckeyegirl4 replied to buckeyegirl4's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had an appt April 19th with the LB surgeon . I had to postpone it until the 29th. Which I think is way too aggressive. My GB surgery was not planned. I am treating it with many of the tools I learned on this forum. Heating pad on stomach, walking, liquid diet only and the pillow hug to get in and out of bed. It's painful but I am coping. I want to prepare myself if they are about the same or if either is worse. -
I have been in the hospital for 5 days now and was told today my gallbladder is functioning at less than 26%! My lap band date has been postponed now. Has anyone been banded after gallbladder removal? How long do I have to wait now?

Thank you so much!

Gallbladder being removed tomorrow

I am at a different hospital! I don't think they would even entertain it. The liquid diet that I am on is the absolute same process too!

I sincerely hope my 2nd thoughts pass soon but I am 50. Is that too old? -
Rears her head again as 2 days before my appt with the surgeon and psych, I am in ER and they think its my gallbladder. I have read on this site that many have had their's removed too. Coincidence???

I just discovered this location specific area this morning. Are any Clevelanders still active on this site? I am not yet banded but I hope soon (appt @ Cleve Clinic this Friday).

So confusing! This sight has been amazing to me! I know, good AND bad about the band. All advice AND advisors have been a tremendous help. People are different but the before AND after photos say it all. I just want my band AND a chance for a better quality of life. Thanks everyone... -
