I think mine is because that where i feel pulling at. But I go to the doc on Monday I will ask him?

Sorry to hear that:( I pray it will heal up soon and it always ok to vent. So did the tape cause the problem? Mines just itch alot I was band last Monday. Well I wish you a speey recovery:D

Amen!! Stay positive:)

Yes! But everybody is diffrent. I was band on Monday an my gas is not bad at all. Just make sure you r up and moving around. And I chew Gas x and just take small sip

Sorry Dizzy:( I just know they told me only liquid for the next 7 days because the stomach is so swollen. And they also said your stomach can only hold one ounce at a time then over time it will beable to hold 1/4 cup to 1 cup I pray this feeling will past for you. But that life we live and learn

Well it the same here can't get all the protien in. I love the breathing exercise it hurt like heck but it work. I walk around the block today. The gas is not so bad. The med help alot. But my tummy is really swollen but I think because of the hernia I didn't know I had plus from all the gas they put in you. The nurse call me an ask how I feeling an she said all the thing are normal. So I am wondering if you dont have a bm do u take milk magnesia r do u take something else to help u:blink:

Do u have Tricare Prime? Wow I can't believe how high things are for you:( Where are you station at?

My husband is retired Airforce. I just got banded on Monday we have tricare prime an the only thing I have to pay is 12 dollars co pay for my fills. And I pay 25 dollars for my stay at the hospital . I wouldn't worry to much about when you move tricare always have somebody in your network. Now maybe if you go overseas could be diffrent. but they usualy make sure that can take care of you need before they send you. We live overseas twice Good luck!! And I think those people wanted to charged 100 a fill is full of caca

Your blog made me lol to much!!!! Wow you went thur alot during surgery. I stay the night in the hospital. Those shot in the stomach is know joke by the way I had 4. And that liquid mutivitam is so nasty. The part I enjoy the most was the barium swallow. They thought that was funny. But after only living off of cold Water and ice chip it tasted like strawberries to me. We will make thur this I think I will be on mushies next week. Then Dec 13 I go in for something I think I be on regular food Good luck to us all Mabinty

They gave me ice water in the hospital. I also had ice chips. Know problem here I was band on Nov 22
