I'm so sorry to hear this! Thank God you're alive and on the road to recovery! This isn't the first story that I've heard about the band eroding in someone's body.... It's a very scary thought!

If any one is concerned with the IV stick and afraid, I have a suggestion. The day before your surgery drink tons of Fluid throughout the day, try to get in at least 1/2 to 1 gal. of Water, this will make your veins POP!!! and it will go ooooooh so much easier on you :D

Almost there! Sitting in my hotel room having my broth and popsicle, tomorrow morning its off to Mi hospital and a new me! Everyone has been so nice and helpful! Samuel called right as we got off our plane and was waiting for us, he even took us on a little driving tour of San Diego since we haven't been in 10+years! The Marriott staff is extremely helpful and so nice! We went to the restaraunt to feed my husband and for me to broth it up, they brought the broth and some Jello which somehow tastes better than what we have in the states! Rosie was waiting for us at the hotel and then also came by tonight to see how I was doing and make sure I was ok and ready for tomorrow, she helped answer all my last minute nervous questions she has the sweetest dispostion. Wish me luck tomorrow! I'll post as soon as I can, I hope all of your experiences go as well as mine have so far! See you on the Losers bench!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
