I have been getting up all night everynight and walking in circles! It does seem to help if even for a short time. I'm here at work now. Everyone is at lunch. LUCKY THEM! I think I am going to pop outside in the HEAT and swelter around the block a time or two. I'm not feeling all that gassy at the moment but, supposidley the more you walk and move around the better you feel. I dunno if I am buying that yet! HEHE. Thanks for the replies ya'll. P.S. I couldn't get my lil tracker thing to post! Booo. :-(

My cousin and I were banded on July 30, 2007. She is doing very well. However, I haven't been able to sleep. I feel the port or something in me which is painful for one. Also, it feels like gas settles all over when I am laying down. I am up and down all night. It's hard for me to burp, even though I can feel so much pressure in my chest it hurts! I have no trouble passing gas the other way!! In fact, I go back to work tomorrow and I am a lil scarred of that! Anyone have the low down on what to do or how to help these dilemmas? Thanks brother and sister bandster's! :help::help::help::help::help::help:

Hello all, it's the banded cousin here. Is anyone else having problems sleeping? I can feel the port or band or whatever is in me! It's getting somewhat better now that we are 6 days post op. However, it seems gas creeps into miserable places during the night and sends me up walking in circles, trying to get some relief. I've also had a hard time being able to belch! I feel the pressure and try to get it out but it's just seems to be stuck! Any one esle had this dilemma? I go back to work tomorrow. I'm not looking forward to that. (Luckily the gas that does come out, isn't stinky, just painful and loud at times!) LOL If anyone has any recommendations, I'd appreciate it. :-)
