Carlene 12 Posted September 25, 2006 Of course not. My DH is banded....he just doesn't do message boards. I suspect there are a lot more like him, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seminole 0 Posted September 25, 2006 Hello, I am a man. All seems to be going well. Going for my third fill this week. Let me know if you have any questions especially " man questions" Peace Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
reredc 0 Posted September 25, 2006 I'm a guy. I was banded last Tuesday. Everyone seems to recover differently. I, for example, am still having lots of shoulder pain from the gas they use for insufflation. Icy-Hot Patches and lying on my right side seem to help though. Surgery itself was a breeze. Congratulations on your decision, I am sure you will do fine. Good luck to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rsbell 0 Posted September 29, 2006 Guy here. I'm just starting the process, but hope to be banded in November. My insurance will pay pretty much no questions asked with a 40 BMI (and I'm VERY close), and a co-worker of mine had the bypass within 2 months of being eligible through the insurance. I'm crossing my fingers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
