Colace worked for me eventually and even several months post op I am not as regular as I used to be. I do find when I drink Keifer it helps! Good luck

Your PCP doesn't sound very supportive, they sound like a total ignoramus! If you aren't able to get their support you really should find someone who will! Good Luck! -

Constant Burping
DMJ 0340 replied to juliecatherine's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've been banded since beginning of May and still burp all the time......when I wake up in the am, at the gym, before eating, after eating, etc... -

My port had flipped some time after my surgery and when I went in for my first fill my Dr couldn't put saline in as the correct side was facing down. I had to have another surgery to correct it. It has been almost three weeks and am looking forward to my next fill. My Dr. Said it was the first time he had seen that. I think it happened when I was walking my dog on leash and she took off after something- pulling me along. My Dr thought it could have been caused from working out. Good luck to you! The port surgery was much easier!

Make sure you are walking, it helps with the gas pains from the surgery!

I have used the unjury protein powder which I order on line, quick delivery, and taste is decent. They have several flavors. Protein shakes are key to success!

How does it physically feel ?
DMJ 0340 replied to readysetg070113's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I feel the band in the mornings. It feels tight, drinking hot tea helps! There is a bit of pressure I feel from the band- its not painful, just there. Good luck in your journey! -

Discomfort shouldn't last too long, make sure you do as much walking as possible, as it will help with the gas that makes you feel the discomfort. Also I would encourage you to sip water and your protein drinks constantly to stay hydrated. I must admit I took 2 weeks off of work as I tired easily after surgery. Good luck, stay hydrated!
