My LB Journey

by Sheila Havens
(Columbus Ohio)

I just had my stomach banded yesterday, May 17, 2010. Last night and in early hours of morning I was wondering if I had made a mistake?? But, all through the day I have started feeling better and better. The pain pills are helping and that keeps me walking and getting up which is what I need. I'm not sorry, that was the leftover anesthesia talking:)

Today I have had apple juice, tea, chicken broth, water, and some more apple juice. I have had bouts of hunger, but keep telling myself that this too shall pass.

I have to follow up with my surgeon in 2 weeks. I had wonderful care at Mt. Carmel West in Columbus Ohio.

I will write tomorrow:)
