The stomach pain will subside quickly. It hit me on the second day after surgery but has gotten increasingly better since. I have tried to move around alot and I think this has helped to relieve some of the soreness. Good Luck! -Judy

Thanks so much for your replies. I was definitely feeling very sorry for myself an hour or so ago. Had a good cry and here I am. It is so re-assuring having all of you to converse with. During my surgery on Tuesday (4 days ago), I also had my gall bladder removed, plus my hietial hernia repaired. I have just researched Lamasil on the internet. My doc put me on this stuff about 20 days ago (for a nail fungus). I have a suspicion that alot of what I am feeling (naseau, achy- flu like symptoms, lethargic, depression) has to do with the Lamasil! Think I will quit taking it tomorrow!

I was banded on the 28th also. At this point I'm wishing I hadn't had the surgery. I feel very weak, my back and shoulders hurt alot of the time. Right now the only thing(s) that taste good to me are Carnation Instant Breakfast drinks, or instant mashed potatoes. All I want to do is lay around. Can someone help me please?

Absolutely...I am 3 days post-op and still very very weak. I have been walking as much as possible; but am exhausted and must lay down after my walk. I too had hoped to go back to work by now, but have NO energy! Judy

I had my surgery this past Tuesday, 4/29. Yes, I have the very same! Not sure what it is...have you called your doc?

Hi - I too was banded on 4/28/08! During my pre-op testing it was discovered that I had many gall stones, as well as a hietal (sp?) hernia. Had to have the gall bladder removed, hernia repaired and was banded all at the same time. I'm on liquids as well as soft foods (shredded cheese, yogurt..); not hungry at all. Judy
