Help...Having a little discomfort to band area



Recommended Posts

I hope someone can help me.....I had my band done 12/28/09 and never really have had any problems. I have now been having a little discomfort in the area where my band is at. my port area ia fine with no problems, I am able eat with no problems. I am not sure if my it's my band that just maybe just changing still. I had a fill done about a month or go and I notice I had some discomfort then as well. So I wonder if it's the same thing or something different. please help me I am just worried something has gone wrong with my band...thanks for your help

Please help me understand what exactly you are feeling, and when? Have you discussed what you are feeling with your doctor?

I called my Dr.office and I have an appointment Monday afternoon. I would have gone tomorrow but my mom is having surgery tomorrow morning. The nurse said maybe I have ate something that did not agree with me or swollen tissue she ask me where the discomfort is at and it kinda to my left rib area. She told me the band is higher up and chest area. so maybe this discomfort has nothing to do with my band...but I sure hope to goes away soon maybe it's just stress with my mom having surgery in the morning...I was doing great until this little discomfort came along. I will keep everyone posted

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
