    Now I am able to get a little fluid down but have the worst case of heartburn. Has anyone else had this?

    1 day post op and scared

    Hey there, Dr. K says that i have swelling around the band site and only time will heal it. I have to go to the hospital to get an IV because the swelling is causing an obstruction and I cant keep anything down. Girl, all I can say is, really think about this. I have been in hell for the last two days and am starting to regret this. This is a life long procedure and nothing comes without complications. Thanks for checking on me and keep in touch..
  8. Hi all, I was banded yesterday and I have been trowing up uncontrollably. I cant even keep my saliva down. Had an upper GI done today and there is swelling on my stomach at the band site. Anyone have this happen. I am scared because they say to keep hydrated. Help.
  9. OMG! I so wanted to hug you, or do something! Please let me know you're ok. I was worried about you all night. I kept checking to see if you'd posted anything, and I could hardly focus on work. I hope they took good care of you at the office. The Nurse in me wanted to go take care of you, but I didn't think they'd let me come. I'm worried about you.:confused_smile: Send me a note when you can. HUGS!!!

  10. Good Luck today! I'm sure you'll do great! Look forward to hearing how everything goes! Ambra

  11. Terri - may I ask what your height is? Im only asking because your weight goal is the same as mine and Im trying to rationalize in my head that Im doing the right thing.. ....Thanks!
