nikils015 20 Posted December 29, 2012 Couple days out now, got banded on Wednesday. I'm having pain but I can't really tell what's actually going on. I'm very sore, plus having incision pain, PLUS I'm still not sure what the band is supposed to feel like. My surgeon said he "put a bit in", so I know I would be feeling restriction if I was on solids, but I'm still on liquids for the next week. What the heck is it supposed to feel like in there?

kazjim98 618 Posted December 29, 2012 Got banded yesterday!!! Just got home. While in there the Dr. Repaired a paraesophageal hernia. Really sore at port site. Is this normal. Congrats!! I think it's normal, I'm 12 days post op and my port is definitely my most sore incision... 1 heanster18 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Windfury 42 Posted December 30, 2012 I've been banded for 17 days now, and I still feel a bit of soreness around my big incision, which is where the port is located. Remember, that's where the doctor did most of the work, is through that incision, so it would be normal that it would be sore the most around that area. It does get better with time! I'm 20 lbs down, so it's all worth it. Hang in there! Hello to everyone else! 1 kazjim98 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banjo257 920 Posted December 30, 2012 Hey December banders! Was just thinking how hapy I am I decided to get banded. Sometimes at the end of the year I get bummed because I still struggle with my #1demon-weight! Who else is happy? If you're happy and yoy know it give me a "like"! 7 Windfury, FutureMrsH, Desotogirl and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banjo257 920 Posted December 30, 2012 Has anyone had the chicken broth by Unjury? Not a fan! Can someone suggest a tastier broth to try? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blondegal_ 1,028 Posted December 30, 2012 I use the Unjury chicken broth. I found an organic French onion Soup at Walmart that if I just add 1/4 cup of that to the Unjury it tastes so much better. Also mixed it with some miso and wonton Soups from a local restaurant and like it. You might try something like that. 2 Banjo257 and VictoriousPassion reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blondegal_ 1,028 Posted December 30, 2012 Oh! And I made it with 8oz of Water and then added the other Soups. Didn't use them as the base. 1 Banjo257 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
