Default Home from lap band today

Had the lap band yesterday. All went well except they had to insert a catheter overnight because my bladder was still lazy from the anesthesia (fun). Had swallow study this morning which went well and now at home. Pretty sore, but managable.

Welcome and good news about the lap band...did you see the new section for lap band? I think its great to have people here with a variety of procedures.

Take it easy over the next few days.
