  1. Try drinking someting warm before you eat. Like hot tea or coffee. My surgeon told me that sometimes your esofagas(sp?) will be tight and this might help to relax it. Good luck to you.
  2. I was banded on 2/20/09 and I had the same pain on the left side right on my ribs. When I asked my Dr. he said He banged around in there and may have hit the cartiliage(SP) on my rib and bruised it. After a few days it started feeling better. Hope you feel the same.
  3. Just banded on Feb 20th and surgery went great. Now I'm home and I can't seem to get rid of the gas pain in my shoulders (if thats what it is). I have walked every day. Has anyone else had shoulder pain this long? It feels life someone sitting on my chest. It hurts to take deep breaths. Bingo-b
  4. My husband and I loved to go out to dinner and we did almost every night after we got home from work. This surgery is going to be a life style change for both of us. He has been very supportive even to the point of going on the liquid diet with me for two weeks. What I would like to know is post-op what restaurant foods are better tolerated? Any suggestions? Surgery date 20 February 2009 Thanks, Bingo-B
