Just Got Banded 8 Hours Ago



Recommended Posts

My nurses were wonderful. My doctor wasnt exactly Mr softy but I'm not paying him to be nice... He seemed very knowledgable. Surprisingly, I'm doing fine. When I first got woken up I felt a lot of pressure in my tummy but no pain. The pain was in my back and still is!! I have really bad back problems, so I think laying flat on my back kinda messed me up. I'm not hungry at all like I was going in. I've been trying to walk a little... My gas isn't too bad. Sometimes I will get a rush of gas in between my breasts, but it goes away after walking and rubbing it. I will keep you all updates on my progress. Anyone have questions?

And yes' date=' laying flat on my back jacked mine up too. It took a couple days for it to relax again.

I'm glad you're doing well. Have someone give you a shoulder and back rub. It helps me and yes minor pain when I breathe too. It's normal.

How long will it take for me to sleep on my side? My back kills me in the morning when I sleep flat on my back and there's no way I can sleep on my side. It hurts and pulls.
