I'm getting banded next week in NYC by Dr. Fielding - assuming my chest cold clears up.
Dr. Fielding's office at NYU is a really high volume establishment, and he's one of the most experienced lap banders in the country. The cool thing about Fielding, though, is that he's had a lap band himself for the last 8 years or so.

Melisa, I personally had very little pain to speak of. I had to stay overnight and this probably helped. I had more of a discomfort sensation than pain. I felt as though I could have went to work Thursday (had surgery on 2-25-08). I had to see my Cardiologist and PCP on Thursday so will go to work Monday (I am off on Fridays).
I also had none of the "gas Problems" most people have described.
