    Gallbladder

    No it was not painful. To be honest with you, I was surprised to learn, doing preop prep, that I had gall stones. The doctor recommended taking out the gallbladder during lapband procedure. I did recall one incident, two years ago, when I had extreme adominal pain. Went to ER and they were not able to diagnose the problem. I now suspect it was due to gallbladder problems.

    Gallbladder

    My gallbladder was removed and since then I've noticed better digestion and bowel movements.

    Day 2

    I was banded yesterday:thumbup:, June 17 and everything went well. Dr. Chua, in Milwaukee, WI, is an excellent surgeon! He found out I had galls stones and my gallbladder was removed during surgery. Minimum pain after 2 days is at # 3. No gas/shoulder/neck pains yet. Just a little soreness. I thank God that he brought me this far and I will do my part to work toward completing my weight loss goal.

    Preparing for surgery...

    I'm being banded on the 17th as well. Preparing to purchase everything needed for diet and feeling very excited and thankful. If you've done the research and followed your doctor's and staff advice, you'll be ok. Take a deep breath and meditate on ALL the good things about to happen. BE BLESSED--

    Am I too old?

    I'm 54 years old and will be banded 6/17/09 and I don't feel that I'm too old. In fact, is seems like the perfect time to really start living. I wish you well and you begin your new journey.
  14. Ok, I sure will. Can you give me instructions on how to add the tickler to my profile. I completed the steps at tickler.com but I'm having difficulties inserting. Thanks and hope everything goes well for you.

  15. Great! I will be banded on 6/17/09!
