Hi all, My name is Tony Golic and I've just had the Lap Band surgery (9/20/07). My wife was banded in July and we're both looking forward to making the life changes we need to make sure we're here for a long time to come. I was banded in Charlotte, NC by Dr. Keith Gersin. When I started the process, I was 368 pounds. I'm at 350 pounds now thanks to the pre-op diet. I am looking forward to "chatting" with you all and encourage anyone to send my a private message if they need anything (advice, an ear to listen, a ride to the airport, whatever) :eek: Thanks! Tony

Hi Leena, Not weird and you're not alone! When I started to experience this, I was told that it's generally due to an irritated nerve in my neck or back. I've found that when I sleep on my back it will REALLY flare up and hurt at times. If I shift my hips to one side or the other, it helps me. Not sure where you are on the road to recovery, but a chiropractor may be able to help you with a simple adjustment. Works for me. Hope that helps a little and good luck! Tony
