leeworks 5 Posted November 8, 2011 I saw the surgeon today and I will be banded on December 5, 2011!!! I will have to stay for 2 days as I am also having several hernia repairs. I was told I had 3 ventral hernias and I was only aware of two. Had the barium swallow this morning and found out about the hiatal hernia..that make it 4! My surgeon said he will be able to take care of it all but it will take a few hours. I had a surgical breast biopsy a week ago and found out today that it was benign! I am so looking forward to this surgery being over with and starting my new healthy life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

susan73 2 Posted November 8, 2011 congrats! i was so happy when i got my surgery date. because of insurance issues, it took 3 years. and then it was less then a week away once they gave me the date. my surgeon found a hernia and my stomach was too high, but even with the scans and such pre-op, they only found it when i was in surgery, good thing they did the surgery. so good luck!
