It seems that I also had to have a large hiatal hernia repaired. I have had some pain off and on since the banding. I get intense heartburn and shoulder pain. I am on percoset and would like to wean off as it is causing intestinal issues. I will try in the a.m. to use aleve. I am on the full liquids and having oatmeal and cream of wheat also. I have lost 9 lbs in the last 7 days. I am hungry at times but I haven't had my first fill yet. I go for my post op appointment on the 23rd of November. I am happy that I did this even though the financial burden is stressing me out. I just need to take it one day at a time. Thank you Lord!
