::Waving Hello to All:: I was banded on Fri 5/9/08. Came home from the hospital yesterday. I'm in pain but chugging along. I agree with others I think the most pain is in the port area and the gas/bloat. I also had pain in my shoulders from anesthesia pockets. Welcome to the other side for many of you! XoXo

Hi, I"m from Westchester NY and will be banded the end of May.

::Waving Hello:: Hi, I'm Vanessa.. I live in Westchester, NY. I have my consult with surgeon Dr. Kaul through Westchester Medical Center tomorrow. :biggrin: YAY!!

What is the actual process of banding? I've done the seminar, I meet with my surgeon tomorrow.. I just would like to know what I have to get done and crammed in before my surgery date. At what point do they shedule you for surgery? Thank you!
