twinskins 13 Posted September 13, 2012 I was banded on Monday - my doc prescribed Oxycodone to help with the pain. The only weird thing I've noticed is that when I eat, I get a gurgling noise in my throat. Odd, but I don't know what else it could be except maybe gas bubbles. It's not painful, just kinda funny when the room is all quiet. I have the most pain when I go to stand up or sit down. Getting out of bed has been a challenge as well. Kind of reminds me of my c-section, except the pain is upper not lower. I haven't felt the need to eat, but my Mom is here taking care of me until Saturday and she has been writing everything down and make sure I take in 2-3 oz each hour as directed by my surgeon. I am also sipping on liquids throughout the day. Yesterday, I walked my kids to school and walked to pick them up, so I'm trying my hardest to get in the walking. I went to Walmart this morning to pick up a few things. I'm down to one pain pill v. two. Feeling better each day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
