I had my lap band surgery on New Year's Eve 2007. I have had 4 fills and have lost a 27 1/2 pounds. Yeah me!!! I am just at the point where I can really feel it. And well, this was suppose to be "my year"! But I was handed another issue to resolve first. I have been recently diagnosis with a brain tumor. Doctor believes it is benign, we will know more once the pathology report comes back after the surgery. I am trying to stay focused and positive. Although sometimes it is a little hard. Funny thing is I took the news of the tumor better than when my lab band Doctor said he needs me to come in before my brain surgery to be deflated. I was so mad. I just started to have good results and now you want to undo it all. I was none too happy. He said it could cause a complication during my surgery. Has anyone had to undergo major surgery and have to be deflated? Or has anyone not been deflated and had major surgery...any complications as a result?....just curious........:crying:
