    I fear i have ruined my internals for life. I am a year plus post op and i am 6 months pregnant. All of a sudden my band is super tight and mg prenatal vitamin got stuck. It was the worst pain ever in my throat chest and shoulder. That was the 5th and now im sitting here 12 hours later and i can barely drink water because it comes right back up. Anyone experience something simar?

    Deflating my band is not an option. I dont want to be fat and pregnant eeeuw. Anyway gummies is a good idea. Im already six months along and hadnt had trouble swallowing these pills before. So it was real weird. On to liquid diet till swelling subsides.

    Shoulder Tip Pain

    sandymax replied to Luce3's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    My shoulder pain went away a few days post op but it seemed like forever. I'm a few months shy of a year banded and if I over eat the pain is back just as strong. It is the pressure on the diaphragm tht causes it. It will pass. Hang in there and good luck.

    I was banded in December and was so hungry and tired of holding back, I attacked a bucket of chicken a week post op. (Hey, if i had self control i wouldnt need the band) Hang in there it gets better. I only lost 20 pounds in the first few months after surgery, but once i found my sweet spot i am losing a consistent 2 pounds a week and now I am in heaven. Dont worry, you are normal, and all of our individual experiences with the band are different.

    So... i got a box of hot links in my fridge that are calling my name but i feel so good that scale is moving slow and steady downward

    I can understand. Nothing helped me except for the liquid Hydrocodone. After day 7 the pain went away. please know this will pass and you will be on your way to the rest of your life (as cliche as it may sound)

    WARNING! THE FOLLOWING IS REAL TALK!! I had sex the next day and while I never asked the doctors advice on intercourse I did ask about oral sex and his advice to me was "avoid it if its gonna make you gag, but if you absolutetly feel the NEED, go slow and dont swallow... until your on solid food"

    My Huh Is What?

    sandymax posted a blog entry in sandymax's Blog

    I recently changed insurance coverages and since my new insurance does not allow out of network providers, I decided to leave my beloved surgeon and try a new doctor. My new doctor is affiliated with the hospital at which I work and comes highly recommended. ... So i go in to my first visit with my new doc and as he is feeling around for my port... he says "your port is floating around in your abdomen... and it seems to be almost flipped" HUBBA WHUH ?!!!!!?!!!!! Furthermore, he told me that I was only full 3ccs not 5.7cc as my old doc had told me. I had a feeling something was up, although I am in no pain and the doc says we dont really need to do anything as long as he can manage the port with his hands. I still had this weird discouraging feeling the last few months. So i move on with my new doc who I have the utmost confidence in. Everything happens for a reason and I will go with the flow.

    One week since my last adjustment. I should have spent my money more wisely. I'm discouraged.

    super sleepy sitting at the bus stop.

    Depressed, discouraged, and gaining weight.

    Saw Passion of the Christ for the firSt time and it touched me more than I expected. I guess I'm a #MelGibson fan.
