I got banded on the 12th of April 2012 so this is the first time in years since I have been off my cycle. So far it's been rough. Feeling sick to my stomach not being able to hold stuff down. Feeling drained or like the life has been sucked out of me. Has anyone have problems with "girl week" since they got banded? Is this going to be a constant problem or a phase? I'm just ready to crawl back in bed, but my day is just staring in the sandbox.

My first cycle after being banded was all screwed up. It was late, and when I got it I had it for almost two weeks. My GYN said it was a combination of the stress from surgery and the antibiotics I got as prophylaxis. I haven't had a problem since.

I got a hold of my doctor last night. He told me usually it happens to some females, but not all since we are different. I am feeling a lil better today. I am staying hydrated and at least drinking a Protein Drink.< /p>

I'm 8 days late. Banded 4/6/2012 no possibility of pregnancy.I was just about to post this to see if others had this issue.I assume that going from 3-4000 cal to 8-1000 cal has something to do with it.

It made two for me this month. After the first day I had no problems. My doctor told me if I had any issues or concerns to call him. I am now back on track.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
