Incision pain
Pinkgirl1234 replied to BrightEyes42's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am almost a month post op....still tough -
I had revision to bypass ....the first week you feel like you were literally run over by a car.It will slowly get better..,Revisions from the lapband is beyond tough!The surgery is much tougher than others...just the removal of the band is extremely tough.,,scar tissue etc.Thats why some surgeons won't do it all at once.I know your pain...please note the pain killers als cause headaches so don't be surprised.Hang in there....

Eating popcorn

But could cause you problems....it is a tricky food. -
Stay away from acidic foods.Get a good probiotic...the ones that are refrigerated....with billions of active live cultures.Greek yogurt(plain) .Eat soothing soft alkaline foods and return to shakes..I have lived with this from my lapband days...stay away from fruits and tomatoes.

This is a big question of "WHY" to me as well.The lapband is causing damage and the amount of revisions to sleeve or bypass is astounding.The lapband has caused me alot of organ injury.My esophagus is messed up and so is my teeth from vomiting .Its amazing the years I put up with the band suffering and trying to make it work....if there ever becomes a civil class action lawsuit I am in...
