Susie in Lima 320 Posted October 15, 2012 Oh, just take a deep breath and relax. I think we all had those feelings right before surgery and also feelings of 'what I have I done" right after but even 1 month out, I can honestly say, it has been a great thing for me. I am off all my meds for blood pressure, high cholesterol and insulin resistance. I am already feeling so much better (although there were some difficult days) and have already lost 30 pounds!!!!! Now, if you really want to back out, then go with your gut but you have already been through so much to get where you are. Know that I am thinking of you! Best wishes!

SpaceyCasey 97 Posted October 15, 2012 Oh don't back out!! For me it wasn't that bad I was surprised at how fast and easy my healing process was, I was back at work in 7 days! I'm 9 months now and hardly even remember getting the sugery! Its the best thing I have ever done for myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fyre_storm 1,412 Posted October 18, 2012 There is a thread here that talks of lap band reversals into ventricle sleeve. You should look into it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mkb805 2 Posted October 18, 2012 There is a thread here that talks of lap band reversals into ventricle sleeve. You should look into it! My surgeon told me that usually after lapband patients need the sleeve. I just dont feel comfortable yet having them remove so much of my stomach. I never had a surgery before. I know someone who has had lapband and she seems to be doing really well on it. Im just hoping for the best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
