Topic: RE: Tomorrow is my big day!
Like I said before you're gonna do great tomorrow!! I really wasn't nervous until they started to roll my down the hall to the operating room. and I know I've said it before all I remember is going to the room getting onto the table and the next thing I remember is waking up in recovery! You'll do great have fun and let us no how you're doing too!
Topic: RE: Need info desperately
Honestly, check out Dr. Alberto Aceves. He is my surgeon in Mexicali. You will not be cared for better anywhere!!! I just came back from there. I was scared to death. I went by myself and I'm telling you from the time I was picked up in san Diego to the time I was dropped off, I was totally pampered. They made me feel calm and in good hands. Call Jessica at 503-539-3023 or e-mail her at mylapbandsurgeon.com. She was my coordinator. My surgery was about $8000. I live in Toronto and I did look into it there, it was $16000. I talked to Jessica and my surgery was 2 weeks later. I really didn't want to wait. Check out his website and read the testimonials. i also met some people who were there to have a fill and had lost 40lbs their first month. Everything about my experience there was great!

Topic: Esophageal Motility and Lap Band Surgery
I am waiting surgical review. I have just been told that I need to have a Esophageal Manometry done. What could the problem be? I do not have any problems swallowing. And, I was also told that I have a hiatal hernia. I have not had any problems. Didn't know I had one. Will this cause me not to be able to have the lap band surgery?

Topic: Tomorrow is my big day!
I am way beyond excited! I figured I would get nervous by now but not so far. I just can't wait to get off work. My mind is not into it today. I already told the boss I want to leave early and I have the time already made up. I just need to pick up some last minute things and run some last minute errands.
YAY for me! I will be a loser tomorrow!
