Surgery after Lap Band Surgery



Recommended Posts

Good Evening all, and HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY.

I had my lap band surgery on March 23,2007.

Well, I have just been told I will have to have ankle surgery and it is scheduled for May 23, 2007. I have spoKe with both doctors and they both know of each surgery. The only thing I have had to do is have my fill taken out. Is there anything else I should be aware of? I am not excited about having to go under anethesia(SP) again, but it has to be done.

Thanks in advance for any help.I completely trust my doctors and have all the faith in the world.

Angel, you have nothing to be concerned about. Your ankle is nowhere near your band. :)

Good luck with your surgery and I hope everything goes smoothly!!

Thanks for the response. I thought all would be well, it just feels better to have reassurance.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
