Thanks for all the good wishes... I had co-pays at the appointments but none at the time of admission. And that was a good thing since I didn't have any money with me at the hospital:blushing: Out and walking daily, just have to be careful as the meds make me loopy//// I am off for a little cat nap! Jean

Hi, My surgeon told me 72 hours then I could shower but not to use a lot of soap in that ares. :redface: I was banded Weds. can't wait until tomorrow:tongue2: 2 days post op and not too bad - a little sore, a little gassy and very releived to get on with my life Oce I can figure out how to change the ticker - I will start changing that (hopefully all in the same direction...down hahaha)

Hi Everyone - I am Surgery done Wednesday, home from hospital next day, all went well, everyone was great . A little sore but nothing I wasn't expecting. I will check in with you later, I need a nap. Jean:sleep:

Hi, I wanted to check in. Banded 48 hours ago. Tired and sore but doing well. Can't stay awke for long... sleep:sleep: Good job!.

THANKS~!! Sitting here getting my stuff together to go to the hospital in the morning... I think i will take your post with me to read over and over so I don't have a panic attack and run!:ohmy: jean:thumbup:

Here's to all of us being banded tomorrow. A lot nervous but excited at the same time!!!

Thanks Guys, Trying to get the everything on my list ready to go with me. Still nervous but never had any surgery before so nothing to do with the band. You all helped with those questions.:ohmy: But here comes a new start... Will give you guys update after surgery. Jean

Hi Guys, I know the snow is coming Tues night of course:thumbdown: my surgery is Wednesday morning!!! My sister is coming over and we will call a plow if we need to just to get to the hospital:tongue2: and we even offered to pick up the doc...LOL Still nervous but got so much to do that I shouldn't have too much time to think. Off to work... got my list of things to take to the hospital. Chat later:thumbup:

Hi Jay, Pre-op tests (did mine last Friday) were easy. A lot of questions. They did listen to my heart and lungs, felt my abdomen, etc. but nothing bad, minimal nakedness:tongue2:. Then got an EKG and bloods drawn. After all of it was done they sent me for my chest x-rays and I went home from there. She gave me a special soap to use 3 days pre-op which I started today. So surgery here I come...Wednesday. Jean

Hi All, Nice to meet all of you at the meeting tonight. I needed the boost to keep me going and a lot of my questions (you know- then ones you don't want to ask) got answered.:tongue: 8 days and counting to surgery! Will see you all meeting after I have the band done.

Hi Jhope, I also am scheduled for the 28th. And have my times of nervousness too. I am having my surgery at Brighams and Women's hospital in Boston. What about you?
