Am alittle frustrated ! I was banded on Aug 13 th I lost about 16 lbs but noticed this week I am at a stand still. I was at my support group tonight and as I told my dr have not been eating He said maybe I need to be filled but I eat very little just because I am not hungry I have never been filled yet ! The nurse thought cause I was taken off my fluid pill maybe I need a mild one now ! I am Going to start an excise program tomorrow Any one have a answer ??

tomeof replied to Darlyn Dwan Rottkamp DeVoe's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
It most likely is gas as the dr said but it could be band placement on a nerve too! Give it time at 9 days I had pain in wired spots I still get tons of gas Congrats on ur loss be proud of that. I had my band about 3 weeks and lost 17 lbs Take it one day at a time but try to walk a bit does help with the gas -

SHARP PAIN AND CAN'T TAKE A DEEP BREATH-LAPBAND
tomeof replied to HVNLYMORNING's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Now they fix ur hernia when they do the band ! I was told years ago I had that so the doctor told me when he did the band he would fix it. As it turned out he never saw one he said he checked but unless it was so tiny it should not be a problem glad you found out the issue and it will be fixed for you !! -

K I am taking med for a bladder infection noticed very cloudy foamy urine so I went to the emergency room a few days ago my dr gave me cipro to treat it did blood work all fine had a culture done waiting to hear. I had no Cather for surgery I notice now it's getting much clearer but foam at time is still present I read were foam could be protein in urine. Never had such a thing has anyone experienced this via lap band my doc for the surgery said had no connection with the surgery I have a uti infection would have gotten it any way surgery or not. No fever just feel like all these issue creeping up on me. I am day 15 post surgery
