kerri360 15 Posted February 5, 2013 Hi all I am finally having surgery tomorrow! I was originally scheduled for 1/29 and then had to get postponed because of a UTI. Long story short, I never had the UTI. The lab contaminated my specimen and I was forced to retest and everything was perfect. So glad my doctor was able to squeeze me in! I have lost 22 lbs on my preop diet since I wound up on it for an xtra week with the UTI nonesense. Anyone else being banded tomorrow? I am nervous for surgery but cant wait to be on the other side! 1 SeaSounders♥ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kerri360 15 Posted February 7, 2013 I did it! I am officially banded! I gotta say though this gas pain in my shoulders is horrible! I have my gas x and heating pad thanks to the tips I picked up on here but, boy does it hurt! How long does the gas take to go away? I am getting up and walking a lot as I know that helps too. They also found a hiatal hernia when they did the surgery and repaired that as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
