Hello!

Hello! My name is Shelly and I am scheduled for banding on December 3, 2008. My doctor is Dr. Olson with Trinity Medical Center in Moline, IL. I am very excited to have my surgery.:smile2:

I am wanting to know... how long did people stay home from work after surgery? Was there a lot of down time?

Thank you.

Hi Bigmama. I have a pretty easy job, with moderate moving and position changes, but minimal heavy lifting. I had my surgery done on a Friday and was back to work that next Tuesday. It was pretty easy...

Hello and WELCOME to LBT :rolleyes2:

I had surgery on Weds and returned the following Monday. You will need to plan on loose fitting clothes though if you plan on going back fairly quickly. I have an office job though so it was easier to return.
