So dad and I were done the same day and dad's recovery is going a LOT better than mine. I ended up staying 2 days at the hospital so they could manage my pain a little better and to ensure that I didn't react to the pain meds. Although I am feeling a little better everyday but still have pain in the port site!

I am not really overly hungry whereas dad is and I have been trying to get down more water but am finding it hard!

I am getting up and walking though the gas pain hasn't been that bad. I just wish the Port Site pain would go and I wouldn't feel so tender!!!

I am four days out as well. I am still having a little pain near the port, but overall I feel so much better. I have not been hungry at all and it has been hard to drink all my liquids too. They say every day gets a little easier...so we just have a few more days! We'll be feeling better soon.

i had my lap band on the 27th and feel ok but having trouble staying a sleep you?? I guess we will feel better day by day

Hi, yes...I keep waking up in the middle of the night but I usually go right back to sleep. I'm having this pressure/pain where I assume the band is...sometimes I have it when I haven't had anything to drink in a while. I don't know if its part of recovery...or if this is how it feels to have a band. Do you feel anything like that?

Hi I am two weeks out of sugery and I had the same pressure. It is very normal.. It will go away. The more you heal the better you will feel!! Good luck and Best Wishes.

Thank you sweetmama! That makes me feel better! :tongue2:
