Hi Janice,

I just had my band placed on April 20 by Dr. Ortiz in Tijuana MX. Wonderful surgeon!!! Not to mention it was sort of like a mini-vacation! I was very scared. But, it wasn't bad. As a matter of fact my friend (she was also banded the same day) and I went shopping the next day! We were a little sore. But, I tell ya, we were very sleepy early that evening! :notagree

Good Luck!

I'm new here too. Just banded on May 1 in Monterrey Mexico by Dr. Rodriquez. Still pretty sore around my mid-section. I sure hope I made a good decision. I'm also still a little scared.

Who is doing your surgery? - Mine is scheduled for May 11 with Dr Kuri. I am so nervous too!

I just had mine about a week ago by Dr. Sanchez in Monterrey, MX. Who is your doc? PM me if you want more info on my experience.

I'm headed down to Monterrey Mexico for lap band with Dr. Rumbaut. My date is May 23. I'm mostly comfortable with everything I know about the procedure, I'm just worried about remembering all the pre-op/post-op instructions. I've read enormous variations about what to do and what not to do so I hope I can get it right.
