Katie's Band



Recommended Posts

Hi all, this is Katie's husband posting while she is still in the hospital.

She went in on Apr 11, at 11:30am, the doctor said everything went fine, and Katie is doing good. She was supposed to come home today, but the swelling around her esophagus is preventing liquids from passing at a rate the doctor would like. There is a chance they might have to go back in and install a larger band, we wont know anything until tomorrow.

We're hoping she'll be able to come home tomorrow, and should be back posting in a few days!

So glad you gave us an update, tell Katie we have been thinking of her and are hoping she heals quickly without the need for a different sized band, and another surgery.

Its me again, Katie had to go in for a second surgery today at 3:30. The first band was putting pressure on an artery and causing acid to come up her esophagus. They took that band out and put in a larger band. So, we start the recovery process from day one. At least we know what to expect in the first few days!
