I am so glad you called the doctor! I'm no doctor but it sounds like it might be an infection. Hang in there and don't do anything to the incision, until you hear from the doctor or his staff. Congratulations on your banding. I was banded on 3/7/08. K

Banded 3/7/08. Wow you guys sound like you did just great! I had to stay the night at the hospital due to nausea - I had a real hard time with the surgery itself. Then I had dry heaves, oh boy. The gas was not a problem, just all the meds used. I was discharged on Sat. and now I am fine. Since leaving the hospital I have only used Tylenol every now and then. I have a question: One of my incisions (the big one), feels like it may have "popped". The incisions are covered with tape and the others have apparent dried blood. The one I'm sorta worried about appears skin colored aboved the actual cut, then blood, and yes clear stuff, but dry now. I don't want to be hysterical - but wondered If I should just let it heal or call the doc. Thanks everyone. We are on our way! KW Banded 3/7/08

HI, How lucky are you? I didn't get anything to help me sleep! I have been busy getting ready for the big day too. I guess I'll depend on some tea before bed. I wish you and everyone getting banded the best of luck and speedy recovery. Here's to us!!!

HI! I'm being banded on 3/7/2008 too! It has taken 9 months to get this far! I am really excited. I would have been banded on 2/15 except I fell down the stairs and broke my leg in two places! I am sooo ready. Congratulations on your banding! KW
