I am sched. Aug. 8th. I live 2 hours from TJ & I am still nervous. I have 2 children, a 5 yr. old & a 1 mo. old. I was heavy before my last child was born so I have alot to loose. As far as your smoking I know it is sooo hard just think of the long term & you'll smile. I've been smoke free for 11 mos. Good luck !!

Thanks for that info. I am starting to feel a little better about things. As far as the nightmare stories, I've heard how they have to stick you several times and that the needle was intimidating. I guess I am a big sissy when it comes to needles. Does it really cost 100.00 every fill ?

I am sched. on 08/08/07 for lap-band surgery. But I have been reading everyones nightmare stories of the "fills." Do you feel where the port is through your skin ? If so then you could numb it with Emla cream RX'd by a doctor then you wouldnt feel that awful needle. I just want to know can you feel the port just by rubbing your skin ? I am wondering is this surgery worth the trouble ? I am scared !!!
