I am having my lap band removed (Hoping to schedule for July 2014) AND my Gastric bypass in the same day. The doctor feels that anesthesia is so dangerous to go through 2 surgeries so he is prepping me by getting me to have an upper GI series xray to check on the band and also a sleep test.

SO I am nervous about both occurring the same surgery.

Don't be scared. I had my lap band revision to bypass May 7. I was expecting this surgery to really take a toll on me, but it was not bad at all. I had minimum, very minimum pain and left day after surgery to go home. Only took Tylenol once. So excited for you!!

I agree don't be scared! I had my band removed and revision to bypass on May 21. I went home the following day and feel awesome! No pain just a little sore.. So glad I did it!!!! Good luck!
