Rubbing? HELP! Just banded :(

[AlannaElyce 0]

I was banded 5 days ago and it feels like either my band or the port is rubbing. When I sit down, it feels like there is friction against.. lord knows what-- my ribs or diaphragm? It feels like something shifts inside of me. Then when in the seated position, its uncomfortable.

Has anyone else had this issue!

I am so nervous!

I was banded on 6/30. I haven't had that problem... yet! I am still kinds or sore and it hurts to lay on my sides.

I am having the same problem! I am 7 days since surgery...I 'feel' it inside me all the time. Even when it's not hurting (which is very rare). It typically has a constant dull ache that often deepens to a sharp pain with getting up and down, walking, or simple repositioning. It feel 'tight' and 'rubbing' in my abdomen and when I breathe it feels like it's almost slightly shifting around..I have to sit VERY straight to get comfortable.

On top of this I have to go back to work tomorrow,,,a bit concerned about this.

Well,,,good luck, let's hope this is just because we are newly banded...

I felt an odd sensation as well and it does go away. I think right now it's due to the swelling and possibly still the gases. I'm 6 weeks post op tomorrow and don't feel any of that anymore. Give it another few days to a week and I'm sure you'll start feeling better.
