Well, I did take one dosage of a liquid anti-diarrheal product and it has help greatly. No more surprises! Thanks so much for your ideas and inputs. Guess my system was just in shock. Feeling a lot better and just 1 more day until in can begin to eat sliders. I don't think yogurt and mashed potatoes will ever taste better!

I everyone, My name is Kathy and I was just banded Friday, Sept. 16th. Surgery wise, I feel ok with only minor pain and discomfort. Still taking pain meds a couple of times a day. Not feeling super hungry and finding it difficult to take in 3 protien shakes a day. Mostly drinking Water and broth with probably one shake a day. Mouth feels crazy dry from the meds and I can't seem to get rid of that. My gas pain is minimal...I have been trying to move around to miminize that. My biggest issue right now is the diarrhea. While I risk giving TMI, I can't get over the feeling that I am just going to pass gas, and something else happens entirely! Anyone else experience this? for how long? I can't stand it. Can I take an anti-diarrheal liquid medication for this?
