I believe your doctor will not fill you yet if things are going well
mine did not and I have to return at the 3 month mark vs 6 weeks - he said it would defeat the purpose
good luck
been banded 7 weeks - 35lbs - the first week was hell and I had the same pain at incision sites and in the shoulder - I promise it will pass- just keep moving it will make it go away quicker
keep us posted on your progress!
if you listen to your physician you will probably be fine like many of us - it was scary at first but for the first time I am in control and it is a powerful feeling:)
good luck!!!

good morning! I was banded on 1.8 and so far 35lbs - Dr Simpson said I did not yet need a fill - I go back on 3/22 hopefully I will get one then cause I am starting to feel hungry more often:)
