    hair loss?

    I too was banded in November and have experienced hair loss. It also concerned me for it was at its worse in January/February. It is now fallling out less..just wanted to let you know that it does eventually slow down.
  2. Hi Jaime, Surgery went fine..no real pain at all! Just trying to get all of the liquids down...
  3. I am so thrilled to hear that all went well for you and that you are not feeling all that badly. I am 12 hours away from surgery and was feeling a bit nervous..but after reading your posts I can say that the feelings of true nervousness have decreased! Talk to you soon!:thumbup:
  4. Has anyone had their period on the day of surgery? If so, how is this handled.
  5. Great news! My surgery is on the 7th...My only concern is that I may have my period that day...Does anyone know how this is dealt with?
  6. I hear ..same feelings here..was denied last week and 5 days later it was reversed...band date is nov 7th...as soon as i rec'd the approval I was not able to eat my lunch...no restrictive diet for the week before either but i thought i would just keep it light until then... best of luck to all of us in November!
