Good evening all!! I just got banded yesterday morning and had some questions. I am supposed to be on a clear liquid diet until my doctor says otherwise. At any rate my cuts have fresh blood seeping out of them and it is just staying under the clear tape like coating they have over each cut. The blood bubbles if you will, look like they are going to burst. Is this normal? Also, I started running a lowgrade last night and today as well. My temp stays between 99.5 and 100.5. Is this also normal? I was not sent home with any antibiotics, but only pain meds. As for my medicines, I just can't get some of them to go down without a lot of discomfort. How does one handle this problem if they have to take the medications? Well I hope to get some feedback and maybe some answers to my questions. I'm praying this procedure that I had done will be very successful. I have 6 kids and I really want to keep up with them all, and my husband too. =) Open for suggestions...:help: Thank you kindly, tkgolightly in Texas
