w106fox 62 Posted April 22, 2013 I had to wash with a special soap the night before and morning of and then when I was being "prepped" for surgery they gave me antibacterial wipes (they had warmed them up) and I had to "wash" all over with them.

skylily 7 Posted April 22, 2013 Hi. Please remove me from the April list. They've decided to just remove the band on Saturday, have a good look and reschedule surgery for three months down the track which can hopefully be keyhole and not open as planned. Quite disappointed I won't be leaving the hospital with the bypass done but I suppose it's better to be safe than sorry. Good luck everyone xox Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paul MacKay 23 Posted April 23, 2013 Juliz doing good, broth is great I make my own. The surgery said it took 3 attempts to get the pouch. My stomach was nearly gone. So that's why 5.5 hours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
