April Bandsters!

I went back to work today Felt really good this morning til about 11. Then I started feeling tired and uncomfortable in my abdomen area. Tired to lay down during my lunch hour but after about 15 mins I was up due to feeling nauseated. Went to the bathroom but nothing came up. Thank goodness. The rest of the day was really long. Felt as if I had tons of gas in my stomach and surrounding areas. I think maybe it's from sitting upright all day. Thought I had gotten rid of most of the gas already. When I got off work went to get my son from school and by the time I got there I was feeling sick again. Went to the bathroom felt like I was gonna throw up but never did. Nausea ceased and we made it home. Went to sit in my recliner and lay back some and by about 30 seconds my son had to help me up. Felt nauseated again. Went back to the bathroom only to dry heave a time or two...still feel like crap 30 mins later and only sitting not reclining back. Hubby is on his way home with some gas x strips. Ran out Saturday nut didn't think I would need more....guess I was wrong. Hope this helps me feel better. I would have to say today has been the worst for me. Today makes day 6.

Had my first day home. Was banded on the 27'th. Just got home from the hosp. Yesterday evening. I'm having esophageal spasms they're not that bad, they pass quickly. I can have full liquids now. Still having chest pain due to the gas, but even that has mostly subsided. So I went and ran errands today. Went & paid some bills, went to my work (dr.s office) just so they could see that I was okay. And went to the bank. Busy day! Good luck to every1 who has just had, or about to have their lapband world opened up for them.

I also felt a lot better today, than I did yesterday.

I went shopping, ran errands, and went to the bank.

On the shopping front, I am apparently losing all of my weight from my chest. Come on hips, please get smaller!

I have a lump on my left side the size of my palm. I have to go into the Dr. Today and let him check it out. I am also having to take my pain meds every 4 hours instead of six. I hope it's nothing to worry about. I will update more later.

But what was the lump?

[oneangel34 51]

The muscle they attached the port to. It is swollen. But he said its ok. But I am hurting real bad and the meds aren't helping much at all. Tomorrow I pick up a new pain med. maybe that will help.

I'm so sorry that your in so much pain. I'm sure you'llbe up & around in no time! And good luck to Touria! I hope all goes well for you!! As for myself...I was banded on the 27th.
