SAW MY SURGEON TODAY..

FOLLOW UP FROM THE RNY THAT DIDNT HAPPEN ON OCT 30TH DUE TO EXCESSIVE SCAR TISSUE TOO NEAR MY LIVER.. well I saw my bariatric dr today. he says Im healing good from the attempted procedure :) I see him again on january 4th, he will then set me a surgery date for february. They will try to do the bypass laproscopically. they will make one or two small incisions and insert the camera tools and check the scar tissue. IF the scar tissue is still too much and too hard they will then have to do an open procedure. full incision down my belly. he was concerned that the possibility and likelyhood of the open procedure would bother me. HA, I say... by this point in time I told him I didnt care if he had to open me up and turn me inside out, I just want this DONE and over.   so, yes , I am feeling a bit more positive than last week about the whole mess. its going to be a long couple months doing the waiting game again, but, if I have some date to look forward to it is easier.   thank you for all your wonderful support and caring..

Awww Cathy I didn't know you didn't have the surgery.  I am so sorry....you have just a few more months to wait it out.  Better safe then sorry I guess.   My TT was postponed 2 weeks....so I have one more week to go...take care and enoy the beautiful leaves. Shannon

Hey, didn't you have a lap band? I thought I'd helped you with an avatar before. Yes? Did you have problems and are switching to RNY?  I'm sorry you had problems. That had to be pretty dissappointing.

yes, had lapband. had it removed in sept after 2 yrs of problems.

After I wrote that I remembered some of your posts about you having problems. Hopefully you're feeling much better after having it removed.
