blbaltazar replied to carissab's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've been banded since last Monday and I too was miserable! It's been a week and I still have pain in my shoulder but not so much. Sleep laying completely almost upright that helped a lot. -
I had surgery March 2, 2015 and I was gassy like crazy. Just getting over it! Had food stuck once and had to call 911! It really makes You panic like your having a heart attack! Just take it slow and eat very very slowly

I'm on week two and am still on liquids! I had a stuck episode and I freaked out! Had an anxiety attack and my husband had to call 911! One more week of high protein soups and I'm gonna slow easing into puréed. I'm just so scared and reluctant????

That's so true! Banded on March 2. ,15 and it's hard to not eat anything and the full feeling isn't the same As eating too much -
This happened to me on Friday and I freaked out! I thought I was having a heart attack! I'm just taking it slow stretching and trying to eat only liquids. This feeling made me want to take it out!

3 days post op, banded 3/3/15.
blbaltazar replied to danigle's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I was Banded on March 2, 2015 and I was having the same similar symptoms not the spasms though or the hiccups. But so much so much gas you just have to take your gax-x strips and burp finally you'll be able to eat a little. I had an anxiety attack last night because I had eaten too much moving onto the puréed foods too soon. my esophagus and my stomach wasn't healed yet so now I have to go back on a liquid diet this whole following week until next week which I'm okay with because the liquid diet doesn't make me fell so full and constricted or whereas I felt like I was going to die I even had a call 911 -
You can do it I'm only six days in and I'm certain feel hundred percent better already I just hope everything goes fine want to go back to work 65 pounds is more than I've lost in 12 years

I have had my lap band for six days now and I am miserable not in the way of not being able to eat or anything but I have been having the worst anxiety attacks ever I don't know how to control them and it makes me feel like I want to go and get my band removed and just start exercising and eating right because I don't like this feeling it is awful and I start work on Monday and today is Saturday Has anybody else have this feeling and overcome and I really really need some great advice or someone to talk to

blbaltazar posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I'm having my LapBand tomorrow 3/2/15 and I'm a nervous wreck! I've heard stories that your not able to eat at all after surgery. I'm scared to get malnourished or dehydrated. Is it that your not hungry or that you just can't? -
Scared, Scared, Scared - Lap Band Surgery Date coming up Jan.30, 2015
blbaltazar replied to CC155's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
I'm so glad that there are people out there who feel just like me! My surgery is Monday at 10 AM and I couldn't be any more nervous. I have a three-year-old an 18-year-old and a 19-year-old and I just want to be here for them and my husband for many manyyyy years to come. I just keep thinking about the inevitable but I know that everything is going to be okay I mean I've had a tummy tuck in 2005 was under eight hours with that passed out after having the surgery due to losing so much blood and everything of that sort but everything turned out fine I would have that surgery again in the heartbeat! Cc how did everything go? -

Has anyone used Dr. Lublin in Santa Monica, CA?
blbaltazar replied to sophiekitty's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
Dr Lublin is my doctor as well. I Come all the way from Victorville but I've met with him only once and I liked him. My primary dr said the LapBand is a piece of cake over the gastric sleeve. The nurses at the surgery center say he's an awesome Dr. And not to worry. I'm leaving it in Gods hands. I get banded on Monday after waiting almost a year for everything. I'll let you know how it goes! -
