I had my surgery the same day. I can have protein shakes starting today. I am still really sore how about you? As for the bandages mine are all waterproof and will peel off in time. -
Hello Everyone, I live in Monroe and I am scheduled for the lapband surgery for August 18th with Dr. Scott Laker at Harper Hospital. Does anyone have advice on the surgery or have ever been to Dr. Laker, Weiner, or Webber? Thanks:thumbup:

Tricare denied revision
carletonhoward replied to Stay_Tuned's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
You would think that since the surgery was not done that long ago he would fix his work. I am getting banded on the 18th and my surgeon told me if something happens in the first year he wold take care of it. -
Sore Throat and surgery on 8/15!!!!!
carletonhoward replied to Leslee's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
You should just call the doctor doing the surgery and ask. I would not think that would stop you from having the surery. But a sore throat could. -

My surgery is on August 18th. I am nervous to. But I am thinking of the positive things. Not being tired all the time. Evertime I get invited to an event the struggle of what to wear. I want to run with my daughter and teach her the proper choices in food. When I think of those things it makes me want the surgery today. -

I am getting my surgery at Great Lakes August 18th. Who is doing your surgery? Dr Laker doing mine. I want to say about four to six weeks depending how you heal. -
