Enjoyed reading all your stories and experiences about getting banded this month. I was banded on 7/23 and as most of you all have experienced the ups and downs. Its day 4 post op and I can honestly say I have improved greatly with the pain...Unable to take the liquid percocet, I have been allowed tylenol pills which I can tolerate thankfully. I was prescribed some zofran for the nausea which is huge because 2nd day post of I got the dry heaves but my doc said not to worry...It's all a learning curve and sure does suck to be on liquids only, but one more week and I can get up to the mashy's!! lol never thought I would be so exicted to have eggs or mashed potatoes!! I look forward to reading more and hopefully talking to people about this!
