I am proud to announce that I was banded Friday, July 2, 2010. I receied a LapBand AP Standard 10cc band. I also receied a hiatial hernia repair that landed me a night in the hospital. Imagine my surprise when I woke up in a room trying to figure out why. No problems, my doctor just felt that because I had the hernia repair and lived 2 hours away it would be best to stay the night. No biggie. I have been doing really well so far. My pain is manageable with meds of course. My biggest complaint is gas in the shoulder/back. You guys weren't kidding, that stuff is ruff! I belive that I am through the worst right now and only have good things coming. I'll keep you posted. It is med time. Have a great 4th of July!

Welcome, newest bandster. Hope all goes well for you. Remember to drink lots of water and walk around to move that gas out.
