Just Banded

[ifhbiff 6]

I just got banded this morning. ugh, i still feel nautious even with sf popsicles. the pain has started to kick in a little while ago. yay meds. i did vomit a little earlier, and it was a little bloody. not a large amount, but like as if i spit it out. is that normal or should i freak out now?

I DID have a hernia repair while being banded also.

Hi, hope are feeling better now. The meds help,I was iN pain for about 3 days never vomited but I did stay in hospital over night. Are you already home? If you are home and still feeling nautilus please call your doc and get. Some meds for it.

The next 3 days are not great but you should not be vomiting or running a fever. Getting up and down is hard feels very painful.

Im 4weeks out and is back to normal. I returned to work after 1week, if you could take two weeks do.

Keep us posted.

Congrats! You made it! I was banded on Tuesday. My nausea was really bad the first couple days whenever I would to walk or push myself. I hope it eases up for you. Meds are a lifesaver.
