Grats to you and I hope you feel well! I think staying the night is always a good idea.

Oh I am so happy to hear this! I've been worrying about you! Please take it easy and keep me posted as you feel like it. Try a heating pad gor your shoulder and many gas-x strips!!! This passes quickly, each day gets better!

Oh... I got 2 levenox shots in the hospital, I bruised very easy at the injection sites, just FYI...

Hey - I'm so excited for you! My surgery is tomorrow morning, and it's helpful to read what others are experiencing so thank you for your post. Hope to be giving helpful advice to others as well in a few days.

Can someone tell me how to get the ticker at the bottom of your posts?

carolina girl, congrats and welcome to the beginning of the rest of your life. I too had been thinking about you. Even checked your blog today to see if you posted there. Glad you got to stay in the hospital overnight. That had to help. Regarding the shoulder pain, my nurse practitioner said to avoid drinking cold drinks, as that seems to make it worse. For me, it was very true.

dlitefull, where your name is in the upper left corner, click on the down arrow, click on my ticker and follow the directions.

I had to do lovenox shots while pregnant- 2 a day in my belly! You'll do fine, you get really used to it. Congratulations on being banded, it's worth it, though the first few days may be rough!
