No not really. We had hoped the first fill may make a difference as the pain seemed to be linked to hunger, however, it hasn't made a difference. The biggest issue is the lack of sleep. When I wake up (normally twice per night) if I drink a yoghurt etc the pain goes away......but I am getting over the waking up and not a fan of having to 'eat' in the night. I am very concerned that there may not be an 'easy' non invasive way of dealing with this....... Thank you for your reply. :thumbup:

We are just trying some pain medication but it isn't really working. So we were banded on the same day. How are you doing?

Hello I am new to this. I was banded on 6 November 2008. I am doing really well and have had my first fill. All seems to be great on the food front...BUT.... I am experiencing constant pain that radiates up into my neck and to my jaw on the left side as well as into my left ear. On some days it is constant and others it comes and goes. I have thought, at times, that it was worse when I was 'hungry' or had not eaten for a while. The biggest issue with this is that it waking me up at night. I have not slept through the night since I had my operation. It is starting to take a real toll on me. My surgeon has not heard of such an issue before. Has anyone experienced anything like this? Thank you!!! ms_maxine, Sydney, Australia :thumbup:
