Hi Donna, Still coming along on my 2nd day post-op. Morristown Memorial has a lap band support group the 1st Tuesday of each month. I plan to go in July. Perhaps you and Katie will too? Stay in touch? What are you eating these days? -
HI! I am only one day post op but the port pain is real bad!!! Anyone have any suggestions other than icing it that got you through? How long did you feel the pain there? Thanks in advance for you support~

THANKS FOR RESPONDING, SINCE WE ARE SO CLOSE ON OUR BAND DATE...DO STAY IN TOUCH!

THANKS FOR THE INFO. HUN!

FOR ME THE PORT PAIN IS WORSE THAN THE GAS. THAT I SEEM TO BE PASSING SLOWLY. THE ICE IS HELPING BUT THE HOSPITAL CALLED TO CHECK ON ME AND SAID I COULD USE HEAT AS WELL AS ICE, FOR ME THE ICE IS BETTER! WHEN CAN YOU SHOWER AND REMOVE YOUR BANDAGES? I AM LIVING ON EXTRA STRENGTH TYLENOL 2. MY PAIN MEDS MAKE ME WANT TO VOMIT EVEN THOUGH THEY GAVE ME ANTI-NAUSEA. THINKING OF YOU TOO BAND SISTA LOL....STAY IN TOUCH!

My GF is using his associate and I knw he is well respected but very tough on his post-op diet. My 15 yr old niece had her gall bladder out, not as many areas of entry as the lap band and NO port which as I said is painful and sore 4 me right now. Stay in touch! Perhaps we can meet at a support group sometime! Your the 1st Morris County person I have met here! -
Well I made it through...not even 24 hours post-op yet though. Hard to sleep for me the port site is the most sore. The gas is there but not the worst...thanks so much for the message! I will be in touch when I am up and about more!

TOTAL agreement with men do not think before they speak. Tell him your admirer at the "book store" thought you lost weight ! HAHA Sometimes a little reminder of what they have is all they need to realize how stupid the things they say are! SMILE! -

Hi, Tommorrow is the DAY 4 me at 7:30 AM! Question, I have seen people mention needing GAS X. They refer to it as a strip? Is this something you put on your tongue? Or is it simply the pill? Thanks in advance for your replies and help! I am so nervous about tommorrow!!!!!
