Had the same problem post op. I have a pinched nerve in my back. Stretching has help some. It takes time to heal. I'd go get it checked out though.

Post Op & It Feels Like My Stomach Is Growling?!
TheGerm replied to 2bfit's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Had surgery on the 16th of Dec. My stomach was noisy for the first week. It's calmed down a bit. Most people get constipated from the Narcotics and other drugs. I was for about 3-4 days. Best of luck. -
Mushies - How Many Calories A Day?
TheGerm replied to thebionicbroad's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was told around 600 calories when I'm in the mushie stage. Protein has to be around 70-80 grams. When I had my lap band it was around the same. -
I ran half marathons with my lap band. Now that I am newly sleeved I plan on training for a half marathon in april and a full marathon in Oct.

I Have The Lap Band And Thinking About Getting The Gastric Sleeve... Anyone Else Here ? Could You Share With Me !
TheGerm replied to amyloveslou's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had a lap band done in Oct. 2009 had complications the entire time I had it with leaking. In july of 2010 I had it removed due to erosion of the band into my stomach. I was just sleeved on Dec 16th. With the band I had around 30 fills, a revision surgery which didn't fix the leak and ultimately caused the infection that I had. -

Hello fellow December VSGers! I just had my surgery on Dec 16th. I had a lap band 2 yrs ago and had to have it removed July 2010 due to a leaking band and a bad infection. I lost 156 pounds with the lap band. After it was removed I gained back 40 pounds and decided to have VSG done. -
Before lap band surgery and after. Just had VSG surgery. Lap band was removed a year and a half ago.
