I am not happy at all. The band is not what I expected. I don't even feel like talking about it anymore. I came on here and now I don't know why!

Hello May bandsters. I wanted to know how everyone else feels when the needle is pulled out after your fill. I feel a pull and a pop in my throat. Makes me want to vomit.

Just really depressed:sad_smile:. Two fills and no weight loss in a month. I am always hungry.:smile:
-
Thats awful! I feel bad for you. Its not suppose to stick out.
-
Maybe it depends where your port is. Mine is right above my belly button.

1st fill, and not feeling much restriction
witchbabe replied to LeslieR041906's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi Guy's! I also can eat whatever I want and allot more than I thought I could. This Friday I go for my second fill and I have allot of questions for the doctor. Let me know if any of you have these feelings. My insides always feel like there being pulled. My hips and my back are always sore now. Let me know. -
First Fill - feeling no restriction - is this normal

I was stunned the way it was done but, now I know what to expect. Thanks for the reply. -

I got my first fill today 1.5cc's. I was surprised that he had to stab the port. I almost lost it then....and I have no fear of needles. He said I wouldn't feel any big restriction yet and I don't. He told be to be patient and everybody's different. Has anyone else felt the stab? -
Hi Everyone! My first fill will be July 3rd. Right now I can eat and drink whatever I want. Having a little problem with hunger:cool2:. Sometimes I feel like my band isn't there. How many CC's should I get the first time?

Band Slippage Help Please
witchbabe replied to kingscross's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Did you call you doctor? -
When I first heard people having trouble with eggs I was mad because I love scrambled eggs. Then it was my turn. Happily I eat Egg Beaters with cheese with no problem. I just wonder what will happen after my first fill. Will they start to get stuck?

How painful was the surgery for you?
witchbabe replied to Sarah.R's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi Sarah! I was very lucky with very little pain. I took one vicoden the day I came home and thats it. The only cut that is still a little sore is the port incision. I feel some pulling when I eat but thats ok it must have to do with the healing process. -
You had staples! I didn't even have stitches just tape.Everyone is so different. I'm glad you tried the victims.

Try taking 2 Flintstones chewable vitamins. Thats what I take.......not bad.

Didn't your doctor make you lose any weight before your surgery? -

witchbabe replied to mstrina27's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi! Banded on the 12th doing great! I think I'm one of the lucky ones. I was up walking 3 hours after surgery. My belly was swollen from gas but I got all that out the next day. I was very surprised I had no stitches on the outside. My husband said I look like I was stabbed 5 little times.LOL! -
Nice to have a bander so close. How are you doing?

Sore throat question
witchbabe replied to minidriver's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had the same problems. My throat was killing me. They gave me ice chips and it worked. -
Hi Im from Rhode Island.:thumbdown:
-
Thanks for all the replies. I feel much better this morning. Still not hungry so I have to force the shakes down.
-
I was banded yesterday and I'm not hungry yet. It really hurts when I take a deep breath. Does anyone else have this problem.
-
Thanks for the info Molly!
-
I saw my doctor yesterday and he never said anything to me. I hope he uses the new band on me.:cry_smile:
