lap band revision after slippage

[tyler13 0]

Had a revision surgery done on 10-16-10. Wasn't sure my band could be left in or not. But with great luck I was able to keep it. They did a endoscopy to make sure my stomach tissue was still ok. So now its starting all over again. No Fluid in band now, will see maybe in 2 weeks they will put some in. Although can't eat a whole lot now anyway. Question for all banders out there, did any of you suddenly start your monthly cycle after surgery. I am mid cycle and am having a period now. Also anyone having trouble taking oxycodone pain meds? It makes me not able to focus my eyes.

Oh man! I was given liquid oxycodone & I had to get off of it within 24 hrs.! I couldn't even think or make sense of anything! It was awful! I was put on liquid tylenol, which did NOTHING, so for days I was in pretty bad pain! Maybe your doc can find something you can take that will help you! Good luck!
