All my tests are done!

I can finally resume going to work 5 days a week like I'm supposed to! Thank goodness for laptops, blackberries & gotomypc.com! My last test was today; endoscopy. My poor old unfilled band looks just fine & so does everything else. I think I'll take my band home after Dr. Garber removes it! Interesting: The doc did say he saw some bile, which indicates reflux. No big deal, he said. I was on Nexium for years for that & bye bye reflux. Now, my insurance doesn't cover Nexium & I'm on Previcid. I know there are other PPI's to try, but I do miss my Nexium. I think I'll check out how expensive it is to buy it from Canada. Now I'll cross my fingers & toes & hope for approval. Karen

Congrats, Karen!!! LOL @ you wanting to bring your band home! I've used Previcid. I still have some pills left. My reflux was inconsistent. I might have it 2 days, or even one day, then not have it for months. I've got my crossables crossed for ya too!

Karen, YEAH glad all looks good. Now you just have to sit and wait? Please keep us posted! I wish you all the best and I will also keep what I can crossed for as long as I can Debra P

Karen so are you having a different surgery? Were you Lap Banded. I am not so sure I followed but then again I so off today, lol Got to love my BlackBerry!!! I just got some new software for it and am in LOVEEEEEEE!!!!

Hi Chelle, Yup. going to RNY from band. Band worked great.. I developed an esophagus problem. I was laughing last night reading posts on Lapbandtalk.com. A lot of really nice people who would "Never go for RNY." Ha ha...I used to be one of them! I'd love to hear about your new software!
