Pouch dilation vs bandster hell

[ashmd2b 0]

How quickly does pouch dilation happen?? I don't feel "full" after eating 4oz a lot of the time... sometimes I do. Is this just part of bandster hell or could I have dilated my pouch by drinking too much/too fast? :cursing:

Ash,

I have the same problem. I am 3 months post-op and I still can't tell the difference. It's truly a frustrating situation.

If you haven't achieved restriction yet, I think it's reasonably safe to put concerns about pouch dilation to rest :cursing:

I'm just worried that it's more than just bandster hell... I'm a worrier though! Today was supposed to be my first follow up appointment and the doctor had to cancel because he was in a case that was going bad and had no idea when he would be back to the office. I'm glad that this happened AFTER my surgery though so I didn't have anything extra to think about beforehand. With my bf being a surgeon I know that things can go wrong and you can run into the unexpected but it just makes you think.
