Life after Lap-Band Surgery

Well, I did it. I had Lap-Band Surgery! I have 5 small incisions on my upper belly. Pre-Op was not so bad. All of my nurses were wonderful. Surgery & Recovery - I don't remember much of it. I remember that they gave me the "loopy"meds before they wheeled me into surgery, I remember the surgery room being bright, bright, bright white. And that's it. Then I remember coming to in some room, but I don't know where I was - I saw a clock that said 1:30p - so I am thinking that was Recovery. And I know I was in pain. Then I remember two nurses fussing over me in my room about 2:20p. I had to go do a Upper GI and drink something that tasted like medicine. Then they brought me ice chips and a tray full of liquids.
