Good luck bromo! And Glad it went good for you Corrigan!

Id also like to add that today I found out that the plication that I received with my band isnt really the standalone plication procedure. Its only a single fold instead of double which does still decrease the stomach size by about 70% and the complications are less then the double fold in terms of blood flow problems necrosis etc. It also helps keep the band in place better like corrigan said. Doc also said he has some lap band with plication patients that are out doing some of his gastric bypass patients in terms of weight loss. They are really happy with the results of this double procedure so far. Not sure how the long term will pan out with this newer method but so far its looking pretty good.

Doing well 1 day after surgery. I am having a good deal of pain on the left side, but the pain meds are doing ok with helping ease that. I think in a day or two that it will be much better. Not much problem with the shoulder gas pain, but I am trying to walk around my apt a good bit. So I am quite satisfied with the way things are going here. Thanks for the support.
