did anyone have the LapBand and Gallbladder surgery at the same time

I had my Gallbladder taken out when I was banded on 5/11/09. Not bad. Didn't have pain after the first 24 hours. Can't tell I had my gallbladder removed. Still eating soft foods. So far, all is good.

My surgeon won't do them together. Too much increased risk for infection. My husband said it's probably so he can charge for two separate surgeries (giggle).
