Hello everyone, I had the lap band surgery 7/5/12. I am experiencing extreme gas throughout my chest, feels like its swollowing my heart sometimes. My back has been in alot of pain as well, maybe because I'm not able to sleep normally? Anyway I'm just curious to how long it took post op for YOUR gas to ease up though I know we are all different. Thanks!

Lapband Restaurant Card
texas-bandette replied to texas-bandette's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
So I just got back from my doctor and received the formation to sign up for one. It also works as a medical card I guess you could say.. In case something happened somewhere it would be with our person identification cards. Very cool Banded 7/5/2012 -

Band Filled Day Of Operation
texas-bandette posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Maybe I was still pretty groggy, but after my surgery when I had to do the barium swallow, I asked my surgeon if he put anything in my band, I'm pretty sure I heard 4ccs.. CAN THAT BE RIGHT❔❔❔❔ -
