I was banded on 3/11. I will go for my 1st fill on Monday. I feel as if I am not restricted. I can eat almost anything. Has this happened to anyone else? Good luck on your fill.

I was just banded yesterday. I feel great!! No pain so far. I look forward to start shedding the pounds.

March 11th, only 2 days away!!!! I hope they can intubate me this time around.

March 11th here!!

I was scheduled for surgery this morning and they were unable to intubate due to vocal cords. Procedure was cancelled and I was referred to an ENT.:mad2: Has this happened to anyone?:eek:

I felt fine as well. I had a dry cough the week prior but I felt great since Monday. According to the anethesiologist my vocal cords were too close. Only a 3mm gap in between. The smallest tube they had on hand was a 6mm. I made an appointment with the ENT for Monday. Crossing my fingers that he can treat me.:cursing: My throat isnt so sore today as it was yesterday, but for some strange reason my body feels very sore all over.:crying:
