Sleeve Plication Surgery Scheduled For 12/21/11

[GEAUX SAINTS 143]

Hi, my name is Kelly!

I had lap-band surgery in 2002, weighing 220+. I initially lost 73 lbs, with my lowest weight being 147. I hovered around 153 for several years, where I was quite happy. After multiple surgeries for disconnected tubing, band slippage x2 & a hiatal hernia, My doc took out all my restriction 6 monthes ago when I was diagnosed with a second hiatal hernia & band slippage, once again, resulting in an 18.5 lb gain. I now weigh 174!

Wednesday, 12/21/11, I will go in for a hernia repair, to resecure my band & sleeve plication. I am both anxious & excited!!!

Any insight on this new adventure would be appreciated!!!

Hi Kelly and welcome. I've not done well with this surgery, but hopefully given that you've already done so well with just the band you'll do well. Good luck for Wednesday!

You'll have to report back when you're feeling sufficiently recovered.
