I went to a wonderful seminar yesterday. The surgeon, said he is seeing more and more people in their 50's and 60's having this surgery!! So I say GO FOR IT!! And congratulations on the first steps to a healthier you!!

Just breathe!!! Everything will settle down like it is suppose too!!

As a nurse I will suggest to elevate the head of your bed a couple of inches, or get a couple of extra pillows to prop up on, to help with the reflux, if that doesn't help then I would suggest to take maalox or mylanta, along with your Gas-X strips. See if that helps...

I am suppose to have my lap band surgery in November. Dr suggs is my MD. I really liked him. Have any of you had a fill done by him? If you did, did he have any trouble finding the port?

You are more than welcome!!!!!:scared2:
