Help! Being banded on 3/11/2010 and soooooooo nervous!!
lcdragna replied to mskutz's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I have been banded for 3 months now. Love it!!! Would done it over again without thinking! I was little gassy after surgery but not in pain. Had gallbladder out the week before and that was worse than lapband surgery. And honestly that wasn't bad at all! Good luck! -
