hello everyone I am new to this forum and I am so thankful that I found it. I had my lap band surgery on April 17th and I have been having quite a difficult time lately.most recently its been constant "bubbly" feelings in my stomach, and diareeah so constant it keeps me up at night (which is im writing this at 3am...). I cant understand where all this bowel movement is coming from since I have ONLY been drinking water, gatorade, and an occasional bite of sugar free water ice. Has anyone else experienced this, a nd is there any source of relief? Also, I noticed many people on this website are taking in much more than just clear liquids for the first week. Wondering why my budget no-good surgeon told me only clear liquids? I call him names because he was VERY short with me when he saw me after the surgery (when he walked in to my room at 530am to try and discharge me), he didnt give me time to a sk any questions, and totally disregarded some redness around my bellygutton that was a concern of mine 1 day post op, and is now speading daily.. I am supposed to see him for my one week follow up on this coming Thurs, but I wish I could just find a new doc to do my follow ups with. can anyone give me any insight into the above concerns? Thank you so much for including me in your form
