smbonier 26 Posted October 11, 2012 So I am day 1 post-op and am still super sore. The gas pain isn't too bad today but I continue to feel like I have done thousands of crunches. I think that the worst parts now are the dry mouth from the narcotics and getting up from laying or reclining. I am trying my best not to bend too much at the waist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kime-lou 648 Posted October 11, 2012 Congrats! The pain will ease as the days pass. Don't be freaked if pain around the port area last longer than anything else. I am close to 4 months out and I still have a little ouchness in the area if I move wrong. Welcome to the band club! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harrier's Woman 58 Posted October 11, 2012 Congrats! The pain will ease as the days pass. Don't be freaked if pain around the port area last longer than anything else. I am close to 4 months out and I still have a little ouchness in the area if I move wrong. Welcome to the band club! Ok, for a moment I thought something might have been wrong...I'm mostly sore around the port area than where the band actually is located. Thanks for the clarification.
