I had so much pain I could barely breath, but I also had my gall bladder out. I took pain meds for 3 days staight and had to sleep sitting up for a day or two and I tolerate pain really well. I was surprised with how much it hurt, lol. Once, again I think that was prob related to the gall bladder.

Did you feel restriction after surgery? After surgery I had restriction and still have a little bit (I'm 1 week post op). I'm sure mine is from swelling though.

According to my diet plan I can eat soft foods on Day 7.

I'm 7 days post op (had my surgery Monday). I orginally went to my doctor because I needed my gallbladder removed. I decided since it would be the same incisions I should get the band I'd been thinking about getting. I have a few questions. I'm having pain in the middle, right side of my back and what feels like pressure that wraps around from that to the center of my stomach. Is this normal post op pain? What might it be? Is it from my gallbladder. I see my doctor Tuesday and will ask him but I'm curious about what it could possibly be. I have noticed the pressure is also in my chest. I have eaten a very small amout of tun fish and yesterday I had a half of egg (made into egg salad).
