Just had the band done on May 29th, 09. Having problems with lump in chest after drinking or eating.. Still trying to get rid of the air inside, back still hurts.. Was going bk to work tomorrow, but I don't think so.. following what dietician says to do. Also went bk to dr. he gave me pills for being nauseated. Would like to have a buddy to help me through this journey. Brenda:smile:
