One Week Post-op
on April 24, 2009 9:12 am
Surgery went great!!  No complications!!!!  Too bad things went down some from there.  5 days post-op I was still only able to take just the smallest sip of liquid, and if I tried a little bigger sip, the stomach pain would double me over.........to add to all that I had constant acid reflux even though I was already taking Nexium.  I went to the doc and he confirmed that the band prime he put in at the time of surgery left me too tight.  Erin removed .7 cc's and what a relief.  I was told that even though they were sorry, that a least I will know in the future what an overfill feels like right away if it happens and be able to tell them before I would leave the office.
Anyway all is now well, I can still feel the restriction so I may not need any adjustment soon!!  We went to the store today to explore the world of mush

The Beginning
on April 10, 2009 2:20 am
Hi all.....Just a little background.  It seems as I read the blogs and experiences that I am one of the older people to start this process.  I am 54, 6 feet tall and weighed at the start of this 344lbs.  I suffer from sleep apnea, type II diabetes, acid reflux, depression, and I have only one kidney due to cancer.  I have been trying to get approved for surgery since June of '08. 

Well that's the background....now the good stuff!  I have a surgery date of 04/16/09 and I am SO READY!!  I dropped almost 20lbs on the pre-op diet, and to show how ready, or crazy, I am, I actually started the diet BEFORE I had to....

6 DAYS TO GO!!!!!!!!!

Later
Dave
