ali is changing

Hi I was banded on Friday. Have had 3 c sections, and my gallbladder removed. NOTHING compared to the chest, shoulder, and back and neck pain (gas they tell me) that I have felt. The first couple days were really rough. It's hard reading that people feel great, and are exercising, and are back at work. When I am still having a hard time taking a deep breath. It will get better hang in there honey

Might seem silly.. But how do I add friends? I'm faith4this

I had surgery Friday morning 3/8/13 I was told no cold liquids (I am an ice fiend) And no straws. Yesterday I had a horrible day. So much pain, and gas. I barely sipped water and a little bit of broth. Today more pain, still have not been able to burp or toot Walked for 30 minutes. Only been able to sip water and about 2 ounces of a protein shake. Is this typical? I keep reading about people drinking a lot. Everytime I drink I get pains in my shoulders and chest. I feel whiney! Lol

Great thanks! Boyfriend right now on his way to get chewables.. I am a miserable girl Thanks for all the advice

Thanks ladies

Thanks! I feel like hell today! You are super close that's awesome

I was banded yesterday 3/8/13 when I am feeling better i would love to meet up. I live in east mesa off of crismon and the 60.. Pretty Far East. But willing to drive for support

Hi! I'm so happy I found this. I am in east mesa as well. I am getting banded on Friday the 8th. I would love to find a support group, work out partner etc. only a few close people know what I'm doing..
