Msfotobug 3 Posted January 21, 2012 I am in the same situation exactly! Banded Dec 14th too! Just recently, I developed an excruciating pain that filled my thoracic region, went up my neck, into my jaw and arm and even down into my leg. I did nothing but moan. Drugs didn't help me either. It was a build up of gas but it has been almost a week now and I STILL feel like someone has beaten me across the back with a bat. So, please, let me know what your test results show. I have my first post-op visit next week. Thanks! Wow Atl-Jen, someone who finally had the same problems as me... but I don't have a answer for you, every test they ran, blood, xray, cat scan - it all came back NORMAL. I'm convince it still has something to do w/ surgery but the doc didn't have a clue, says maybe it's sinus even though my sinus test came back normal too and I've never had sinus problems before. I'm thinking it's swelling pushing on a nerve or something... I've notice since my swelling as gone down the pain is not as bad so prayerfully it will go away completely once all my swelling is gone. I will keep you in pray Jen-Alt, I feel for you. Please talk to your doctor - weird 2 people having same thing happen both w/ lap band on same day at that!

Colin 4 Posted January 21, 2012 I had it when I started eating "solid" foods. One night I had to knock myself out with Tyenol 3s to get to sleep.............LOL I agree with the previous posters...........chew..........chew.........chew Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cynsae 1 Posted January 25, 2012 Hey guys, It's been 2 week since I tried the cocktail. I'm doing well, on Friday I was scared because I start feeling a twitch of pain but after I took the Naproxen it went away. I still don't know what the issue was but I get my first fill next week and will find out why was I going through that pain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
