Help Me ~ I Need A Good Cover Story For Surgery

I would say gall bladder also.... if you ever really need to have it out maybe your mom won't be living with you so it won't an issue that it is now. Good luck!!

i'd also recommend something with the gall bladder...i had mine removed about 3 years before i had the band done and my bariatric surgeon said that the scars would be very similar, which they were! good luck

I was going to use gall bladder surgery they use the same prceedure in the same areas or clae to anyways but the only use three holes just don't say or show lower cuts sites. It's around the same healing time too. I ended up telling someone that spilled the Beans sooo everyone has been ever nice about it not bringing it a lot it so worked out

I would reccomend the hernia, in fact that is what i am telling everyone. I'm not lying because they are actually going to fix mine while in there. Good luck.

Thanks everyone for the thoughts and input! I will definitely have to think about the hernia and gallbladder. I wish I didn't have to say anything, but people are going to notice I had some sort of surgery. As far as anyone outside my family I don't think anyone will ask many questions except a friend or two, but my family will definitely notice something going on and I don't want to tell them about my band until I'm ready.

If I didn't have the little kids I could just go stay in a hotel a few days and say I'm going out of town but real life keeps bringing me back from that fantasy.
