Oct 2Nd Is My Iband Day

[JustJBK 18]

Tuesday is my surgery day! I am keeping it positive that I can work on Thursday. I am concern about the gas and pain in the shoulders. Any ideas.

If you can take the week off it might help you to heal better. I could not have gone back to work 2 days post op.....needed to nap, pain killers and anesthetic working its way out. I had bad gas (burping and farting) right away that lasted about a week or so. Gas pains (shoulder) happened on day 8, for 1 day. Lost of walking and fluids.

Good luck to you.

Yeah what kind of job do you have? I am a server and initially took a week off but then took another couple day and requested a lighter schedule because I was still not feeling great. Incisions or stomach wasn't the problem, but the gas in my chest and shoulder was very painful. Good luck!

I'm getting my band on Tuesday October 2nd. Im only taking 5 days off work if I can. I'm a nurse but my job is relatively easy. I will call in if I have too.
