Hope everything went well with your surgery and you are resting in recovery now!

I'm getting released from the PLC today, surgery was Wednesday. Now that the gas is moving I am feeling so much better!! Good luck with your upcoming surgeries!! A Calgary support group would be so awesome!

I had my band to sleeve revision done on the 20th. Having a heck of a time moving this gas, even with all the walking but I'm feeling good, very minimal pain, and hoping I get to go home tomorrow. Hope you are all doing well!

Had my revision surgery this morning and now recovering. Managed to go for a small walk his evening which was amazing! Will have a swallow test in the morning and if no leaks I get to start sipping Water. I have never been anticipating a drink of water like I am right now! Pain is minimal, treating with Tylenol suppositories. I can have morphine if it gets bad but it reat hasn't been bad at all. Good luck everyone with your journeys!!

Hi everyone! I'm having my band to sleeve revision on August 20th. I've been on a liquid and steamed veggie diet for a week. So looking forward to being on the other side!! I have a cold that I am hopingm doesn't cause my surgery to be rescheduled. I know the reduced calorie diet probably isn't helping my body fight it off. Hope everyone is doing well! I haven't read all 66 pages of the thread yet but I plan on reading a lot of it this week.

Hi everyone! I'm having my surgery on August 20th. Start my liquid diet on August 6th! I just did all my pre-op testing on Friday. Can't believe how close it is!

I'm in Calgary. I'll be getting a band to sleeve revision done on August 20th.

I am in Calgary. Just found out yesterday I get my revision surgery from band to sleeve next year. I'm so excited! Yay!

I should update my signature one of these days, haha! My band baby girl arrived December 30th! Here she is on halloween as a little mouse.

If you can work the band definitely do. I have had so many complications that mine needs to come out. I thought I was going to have to self pay for a sleeve which I just can't afford but found out I am covered by my provincial health care for revision. Have you had any complications or that with your band?

Today is my five year surgery anniversary and today I found I am approved to get a sleeve. So, so happy!!

I had my first fill about three and a half months after delivering, though my fill doctor said I could come in anytime after delivering.
