Shanna H 30 Posted January 22, 2013 You guys will both be in good hands. This is a new exciting part of your lives. I am a little over a month out and it is the best decision I have ever made. Just remember to breathe and be honest with the pain. Let the nurses know if you are having any nausea or severe pain. Stay on top of the pain and don't let it get out of control. I know you will do great. Please come back and share your journey with us. Blessings ~ 1 ireallywannabthin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good luck to everyone who is about to get their bands too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good luck to everyone who is about to get their bands too! Hey guys so I an on the other side, not as bad as I thought!! ... Just feels like someone beat up my stomach but otherwise I am walking around, drinking Water and taking my Vitamins (chewable and dissolvable of course) The only concern is that I cant feel where my port is, but I am also very swollen...anyone else have this issue in the beginning? Also to you guys who are nervous, you will be fine!!! What to expect?? As soon as you get into the OR they will give you medication to calm down, and it kicks in FAST!! Then the next thing you know you will be waking up and it will all be over!! After I got somewhat nautious and lightheaded so I took a nap prior to walking around, but I am home and walking and FINE aside from some soreness...dont stress out like I did, I just want to offer a peace of mind to you guys!
