Sap 0 Posted November 25, 2012 Hiya everyone, I was banded on Tues 20th Nov 2012, with a 10ml band with 4ml saline put in at time of op. I am currently struggling with my intake of fluids as I have a high restriction. I can only tolerate about 8 tablespoons of Soup & then I am full to the point where I am in pain for around 4 hours later. Does anybody know whether this is normal?? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated Thanx S xx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
heathernl 9 Posted November 25, 2012 Hi. I am 4 days post op. I am having trouble with liquids too. Popsicles have helped me a lot. I haven't been able to do the Protein Drinks.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cheryl2586 3,053 Posted November 26, 2012 I am sure you are still very swollen and with added Fluid that doesnt help. Call your doctor and tell them you are having trouble getting in fluids. If your getting that full then cut the amount in half that you are eating. It will get better but check with the doctor anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
