Wow thats alot, I took one 2 times a day and in the hospital I only rang once and they shot me in the arm with something....but then agian I had 2 c-sections, for my second son I was out of bed as soon as the epidoral wore off, the nurses were amazed, I had several other surgeries and I am told I heal really fast.....enough about me....I would call Dr. Geiss on tuesday. They are probably closed tomorrow. Good luck and I hope you feel better.

Shelby, I was banded on August 7th ettienne11, its only been 4 days since your surgery and your out of pain killers already? I would call the doctor and have him refill the prescription. I had to take the meds for at least 6 days. I promise you it will feel better. I remember thinking OMG I am in so much pain, when will this ever go away. And now I feel nothing.

Does anyone know if insurance covers fills. I have GHI, they covered my surgery in full, does that include fills? I was banded on August 7, 2007 and my first fill is September 21st. ______________ Dr. Geiss LI, NY S295/C268/G165

Hope you feel better soon! I have a 14th month old and he walks... I am not sure which is worse...lol

I was banded on August 7 and I have been reading this sight for a few days now and I always see everyone refer to PB or slime. Can someone tell me what that is?

I had my surgery on August 7th. I did the 2 weeks of liquid, and now I am on my second week mushy food. I eat small meals but I feel like I can eat more, I dont ever get that full feeling. I feel like I had nothing done. If I wanted to I could probably eat something normal. I tried a piece of chicken and chewed it and i was fine. I dont cheat or eat more than I should because I want to loose wieght because this is why I had the surgery. I am afraid that if I dont start to have that full feeling I might go back to my bad habits of picking on things all day long and eating too much at a meal. I get my first fill on September 21st. I was just wondering if I will feel different after that. Will I feel full with a tiny meal??? ____________________ Dr. Giess LI, NY Surgery date: August 7 wieght now 268 Start wieght 295 lost 27 lbs

Yes, that happened to me, there was severe pain near my port, almost like burning. This pain lasted for one day, the next day it was fine. The doctor told me that the port is tackted into place with several tacks so I might have pulled on the tack.
