In the process of getting ready for surgery.
Hi everyone. I have just spent a few hours reading your message board and you all seem so friendly. I started back in late May, 07 to see about lap band surgery. Went to support group and met the surgeon and post-oppers. Very informative. Came away so excited. Pre-op tests needed to be done. So far: saw a shrink. Had an interview with surgeon. Had a heart test. Had a scope. Had a filter put in. This week am having a sleep study, then another segment of the sleep study next week and then the results the week after. THEN, surgery will be scheduled if results of sleep study are okay. I watched an actual one hour video of lap band surgery yesterday online sponsored by Tampa General Hospital. It showed everything!
