Lap Band with Plication

[yaya1397 79]

I'm considering having the lap band with plication. My surgery is scheduled for the 20th of this month. I'm a little nervous since the plication still under study. Has anyone had both procedures done?

I had mine done 2 years ago and could not be happier!

I had both done last December and am happy too. All my fills are done under fluro and my doctor would wait for the barium to move through to check the plication too during my early visits. No issues at all with the plication.

I had both done on 3/25. I was nervous about the added plication too, but I'm really glad that I had it done. No problems whatsoever, and I'm down 56 pounds. Happy!

How long before you guys could return to work?

No hospital stay.

Had a hernia repaired also.

I was off work for two weeks and felt I needed all that time.
