kittylove32 90 Posted October 26, 2012 Hi, I got banded too today. Home now. Well got Home at 8pm. They fixed my hernia also. Minimal pain. When I initially woke up omg, holy pain!! Took a few shots of pain meds to control it. Glad you both are doing well. So far I don't have gas pain either! Knock on wood!! I have been getting up and doing some walking. A tiny bit of discomfort in chest but nothing too bad. Can't believe I am on the other side!! 2 vms1908 and keda reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vms1908 15 Posted October 26, 2012 Ok I spoke too soon. Lots of gas pain. Bought baby simethicon drops, but not really helping. Very sore on port site. I dont know how much he put in my band, but can definately have more than 2cc of broth. Also anyone know uf a binder helps? FYI, I ordered nectar, its pretty good. Have only tried ice tea, but not too bad. How is everyone else? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tammy12 9 Posted October 26, 2012 Got lapband yesterday morning. I had so much pain! Now I have abdominal pain by the incisions. It's been easy sticking to the liquid diet so far. Hopefully I feel the same in a couple days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
