Yay. ^^ Glad to hear it. How are you?

[Zao]

considering the circumstances I'm better than I thought I would be

[Jitter bug]

Great! Glad to hear it. ^^ Very glad.

[Zao]

Yeah it didn't go as smoothly as I wanted at first but I think I'll be feeling a lot better really soon.

[Jitter bug]

Good. I'm glad you're alright though.

[Zao]

yeah I'm happy too I can't wait until I start to feel like normal

[Jitter bug]

Hopefully that'll be very soon.

[Zao]

so far I think I'm doing better because I didn't make as big of a stink as some other the other patients

[Jitter bug]

Stink? Like you didn't toss a fit?

[Zao]

yeah I guess thats what I mean xD I did cry a little and cough a lot and I felt bad because this lady across from me in the beginning seemed fine but then another lady came in and she was frantic

[Jitter bug]

O-o wow, seriously? Which one was it if I may ask? The surgery I mean. I know about the bypass and the banding but nothing else.

[Zao]

lap band and because it was laprascopic I don't have a huge scar

[Jitter bug]

Oooh, alright. They aren't doing the bypass laproscopic anymore?

[Zao]

oh they probably do but they don't offer bypass here. I'm kinda glad they don't though. Because now that I think of it if I got bypass I would be in terrible shape and if I needed to reverse it for any reason I'd have to go through such an ordeal. But with this band it doesn't permanently alter my anatomy.

[Jitter bug]

I didn't even know you could reverse bypass. It's surprising that I know more about the band than I do the bypass considering my mother had the by pass done.

[Zao]

you probably could your entire stomach is still in your body its just been cut in sewn and yeah my little information booklet had info on all surgery alternatives
