Mine was the 2nd an I'm still swelled mainly on the left side where port is. I wasn't getting in much either an worried about my protein but like the forum said before I read now isn't the time to concentrating on weight it's healing time an that's what I'm focusing on. Think mrs Caroline had posted that somewhere. As the days go by you will get more what you need

I had mine done in Houston as well but the dr has an office in the Woodlands an that clinic was closer too drive to for fills then Houston. The staff. During an after surgery were awesome very kind an thoughtful ! Hope both your surgeries go well

Hope you are doing well. ... Recovery well wishes sent your way !! From Texas

Welcome and hope things are going great for you

You look wonderful I can see a differance hoping soon I can post pics. So proud if you

Great job hope all is well with you !!

I haven't really had an appetite an I know that I'm not getting enough protein in at all guess as the days go by thy will increase for me just stay very thirsty

Glad this was posted as in on day 5 an feel same way thanks for the replies

Where can I order this from I love it !!

I agree with all above replies an with a prison job you never no when one those inmates will get a crazy idea to just punch you in the stomach that would be awful !! But alot them have nuthing to loose I'd ask for a short term medical leave in sure your job offers benefits I no the prisons here in Texas does good luck

Omg!! I am so sick I have had alittle broth an lots if water sipping on it but I am dry heaving now several times is this normal ?? I'm taking nausea meds but don't think it's helping much any help as to what I need to do ?? Please

Yes ma'am me too I will also try the phenergan suppository as the gel I don't think was working for me

I am but not alot I have maybe taken about 4 Doeses since surgery. I was afraid that what was causing this but I went to pcp today an he said it was more likely from my hernia repair because if the size it was an didn't think it was my band because I'm not puking just dry heaving. He took out 3cc anyways so i pray this will help. Thanks for everyone's concerns for me !!!

Yes ma'am going in at 130 to get fluid out hope this will help me

This is scary because I too have been vomiting since surgery. But nuthing is coming up just dry heaving sounds so loud in my house like I'm dying . I feel bad so bad for you I hope this isn't what's happening to me because I am so sick

Still with heaving though the night hoping the suppositories will help me if not have to see dr this afternoon to drain sum fluid from port I guess. I'm so sick !!

Hey Julie I hope your doing alot better than I am.

If not better by tomorrow pm I have to go in an they will take sum outta my port. This is awe full I wouldn't wish this on anyone

Woke up this am an couldn't sleep. Guess I have the surgery jitters a day early. Alot of mixed emotions going through me right now. I am so happy that I am being banded an still can't beleive it is happening it happened so quick just 2 days shy of my first appt last month am now I am going to be banded. I will be glad for my new journey an the support that I have from my friends am family it's a challenge that I'm ready to take along with my lapbandtalk buddies. I keep thinking now i will be able to run in the yard with my grandbaby an share moments with the two that we just adopted that are 5 an 8. i feel i have also just started over in parenthood because my kids are 17 yr 19 yr and 21 yrs old. Thanks to all of you for taking the time to read my forum an PLEASE remember me tomorrow

Hello to all !!! Alot of you have been asking how I a doing well I am ding ALoT better than I ever expected of course I am very swelled an sore. I also had hernia repair. I am taking my pain meds also. But I have something else to say we are certified foster parents an tonight I got a call for a placement of a 10 ur old girl . Knowing how much pain I was in I was reluctant at first to take her but we recently adopted an 8 yr old an thought this would help my Lil girl also for a playmate so we said yes !! I'm not saying this to get praise but I just wanted to share how when you are at your worse an unsure what's next. God sent joy to a little girl tonight an our family as well knowing she is safe now . Thanks to everyone for your concern I mean this from the bottom if my heart

I just did they said thy could call me in sum phenergan suppositories instead of the gel I'm using if it kept up. This hurts so bad !!

I made it !!!! I'm on the banded side now lol

Thank you I am actually a mom to 5 plus the one tonight makes 6 lol. We adopted two they are 5 and 8 and my bio children are 17 19 21 so we are blessed with a mixture of ages now but it keeps me young I guess
