I am about the same number of says post op as you. I do still have pain but the pain and the gas have gotten better. I called yesterday and got some anti nausea meds because my tummy was so irritated and jumbly....is that a word Probably not. When I called they said the pain was normal and could still be gas but most likely from all the internal swelling. They said I would likely turn a corner in the next day or two. I did feel better last night.

I have not been eating those soups on the liquid diet, just broth and tomato but I will now! Guess I was just scared a piece of chicken or potato might get stuck! -

Stomach Pains When Eating
knewland replied to nursebethie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am having the same issue. Banded on the 28th. -
As just banded on Friday. Doc said I could take off bandages today, leaving strips on and I can shower. I am scared when I take bandages off I will rip or pull something! Also, how long before I do not need to cover strips with bandages? Terrified of infection. First laparoscopic surgery so unsure!

Thanks. That helps. I am being too paranoid! I just want them off so I can feel a bit less bloated!

Alcohol And The Band?
knewland replied to futuresize8's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Why no carbonation? Should we not be drinking soda? I switched from regular soda to diet soda before I was banded. Should I give that up too? My doc was the one who suggested going from regular to diet. -
Quadruplets!! I am doing okay. Gas today, using gas x as well and heating pad on back. I went shopping today at Walmart (brief trip with hubby) but afterwards felt like I overdid it a bit. I feel really swollen but I assume that is normal. Getting up is painful. I am grateful for the pain meds but dislike them as well because they make me feel goofy and have weird dreams! How much time are you all taking off from work, if working? I am supposed to go back Monday, my choice, but I may have to rethink that decision!!!

Banded 9/26 On Liquid Diet But Starving
knewland replied to 4lovebug's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was just banded yesterday and am sometimes feeling very hungry as well. I am hoping the protein shakes and other liquids keep it under control. I hope I will get used to it somewhat because I have 5 weeks to go before my first fill. I totally understand your pain!! We can do it though!!
