Dr DiCicco : 10 April 2009

[Boykie 4]

Got banded yesterday by Dr Rich DiCicco at Pasco Regional in Dade City, FL. Was ready to leave hospital an hour after I came around, but they kept me till I could take the second round of Antibiotics. I really expected much more pain, did not even get the gas pains I had been warned about.

No pain to speak of, just a little tenderness. What a great job this team did for me, thanks so much. Today I had issues trying to drink stuff that might contain calories, so i probably maxed out at 100 calories for the day .. must try do better tomorrow. I did learn (thru this site) that my hiccups were caused by being full. I thought it was thru eating cold popsicles, so I tried to correct the situation by drinking room temperature Water. Did not help.

Good luck in your decision - hope it goes as smoothly as mine.

THANKS DOC - GREAT JOB THERE>
