ShelliBriz 0 Posted April 18, 2006 :help: Hi all, I was banded in Oz on 14th of April, so far I feel fine EXCPET when I walk around a fair bit... I get this kind of feeling, like when someone punches you in the solar plexes or you get winded.... its not as bad as that, but its definaltey like I've been winded... Did anyone else expereince that? its painful, but not enought to have be rushing off to the dr, especially if its a normal part of the process.... Can anyone share any experiences with me????

vinesqueen 2 Posted April 18, 2006 Oh, this is to be expected! Your diaphram is likely bruised, and many bandsters report this sensation. I'm not even going to call it a complication. You organs are not designed to have someone messing with them, so they are still trying to figure out what happened. You've just had major surgery, you now have a medical implant, so part of the issue is that your body is still in the WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO TO ME?????? mode. Be kind to yourself, you are doing fine. Welcome to the Banded Gentry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
