sglamb got a reaction from beltran2000 in Scared
I have chronic pain due to a condition and am on a fentanyl patch. I've had tons of surgeries including a lap band. I figured this would be no worse.
To say I was unprepared for this pain would be an understatement. By day two, it was gone. I did have some complications from being on steroids so long. My stomach tissue was too thin. They had to staple, stitch and glue.

sglamb got a reaction from Brenda0928 in Surgery Date June 26th
I'm scheduled for 6/26 too! I had a lap band since January 2005, but it slipped suddenly and I Had emergency surgery to have it removed (while on vacation no less) on April 7. In the two months, I've gained 25 pounds. Decided to have the sleeve before I gain ALL of the weight back. I went from a 4 to a 10 in two months. I miss my band. Praying this works as well, If not better.
