Hi all! I'm 1 month post op today and all I can think of is a real (as opposed to diet) Coca Cola! I haven't had one in over 40 days now and today is the only day I'm craving one. Hopefully the ONLY day lol... what do you all do in this desperate time

1 month post op and my port pain is not fun. It started yesterday when I woke up and I only notice it when I walk and things "jiggle" lol! I have to hold my pory site to ease pain when I walk. Anyone else experience this? I go for my first fill Thursday and will talk to surgeon about it but wanna hear everyone's experience.

I am 13 days post op and FINALLY got good sleep last night. I'm a side sleeper and as of last night can sleep on both of my sides (with help from lots of pillows lol)! Be patient you will sleep again soon

Hi bandsters! New to this forum and this is my first post Ok, so I'm 11 days out and on pureed foods. Let's be honest... I'm starving and have been since day 1 of my pre-op diet. Went in for my 1st post op appointment yesterday and although things look good for my incisions, my doctor is extremely concerned about the numbness/excruciating pain (at night) in my right upper thigh since surgery. Anyone else have this problem? As far as hunger, I have a 14cc band with nothing in it so I go for my first fill on 3/27... it feels like Christmas! Haha! I can't wait. I am happy about being 22lbs down but most came off during pre-op diet :\

My Dr referred me to an ortho doc to have it checked out and gave me some anti inflammatory meds... hopefully they'll work.

Yeah, my doctor said the same thing. I was aware going into surgery of possible complications and it may not even be related to surgery. Still glad I did it
