work question...

How long should I plan to be off work when i get the lap band? i heard if i get it done on thurs or fri, I could be back monday. Is that true? Laura

Any help?

You should really ask your surgeon about this... It's a very personal thing, depends on how you deal with anesthesia, how well you tolerate pain... those sort of things Jessyca

I had RNY not lap band, but to tell you the truth I felt fine on day three and four, but after that I was real sore and crabby!!!! Not to mention the 15 trips to the bathroom for number two~!!!! each day! I think you should except at least a week off and a few more if you can spare it! Ask Tania she just had LB or Jodi she would know!! She totally rocks at all the LB info. Plus I think they have a LB forum?.... Blessings, Carmen
