My Stomach Hurts!

1st Fill, is pain and discomfort around the banded area normal, if so, for how long.

Im sorry your in pain, I didnt have any but not sure if this is normal or not. Did the paperwork they give you say anything about this? If your really not filling good I would call the after hours emergency # for the dr that did your surgery and see if you can get someone to ask. good luck

Some say it hurts but mine didn't at all. Sorry it hurts you if you still are hurting you might want to call your dr. I read about a cream you can request prior to being filled some even get a local pain reliever shot. Check with your dr for options to decrease you pain next time

Ughh I know your pain! My first fill wasnt too fun either the doc couldn't find the port and had to keep stabbin at me to find it horrible.. Next day it was very sore and bruised but only for the first two days, now it's a week out and I feel fine! Slight bruising but it gets better I promise plus they say the first ones the worst good luck xoxo

Same here. I bet he stabbed me 15 times and then all the digging around too. I am black and blue almost down to my belly button! The soreness does pass in a day or two and its not like after surgery sore but I was terrified to go back! Had to get an unfill yesterday and it took a couple of times but NOTHING like the the first!!
