You mention a "revision". I am not sure what that is. Could you let me know?
I appreciate your prayers and please know you are in my prayers as well.

Depends what your motivation is. Try looking at "fat" pictures, making a list of the reasons you did this, etc. Most importantly, I think its a good time to try counseling and WLS support groups.

Hi, all.
I am getting ready for the surgery next Monday and am glad to find a board for those of us who are having bariatric surgery in September. I am having Lap band (Realize) and am not worried about the surgery, just a little apprehensive about the life afterwards.

Why did you have to go back ? What was wrong? I actually had to back to the doctor Monday after suffering over the weekend. I though one of my incisions was infected. However I went in and the doctor opened the one up that was leaking and said I had a Hemotoma(not sure how to spell that) another words a pool of blood under my incision. And so he drained it. Then he made me go yesterday to have CT scans on my abdomen and pelvis. Called me not even an hour later and told me that I needed to start antibiotics immediately and gave me more pain meds. Said I had an abdominal infection. However now that I have taken some antibiotics I am beginning to feel much better. I go back tomorrow to see the surgeon so we will see how I am doing. Will keep everyone posted.

Congrats!! I had RNY last week. What are the advantages of having a VSG vs. RNY? My insurance did not cover VSG, which is why I never considered it. Just curious.
I hope you have a speedy recovery!!
