Finally banded yesterday

[Redesigned_Curves 312]

About an hour after I woke up I started walking! I walked every where yesterday and well today is a different story I am just hurting! I am having gas pains mid back and mid stomach! O I started my period the night before!

I feel ya girl! I started my period the night before my surgery, go figure! It hasn't really been a bad one so I guess I really can't complain, but still not something I want to be dealing with.

My pain is every where and I feel like I need to burp but can't get it out! O and my port site is really sore!

I was banded Tuesday ,had a hernia repair also....I stayed that night in the hospital cause the pain was sooooo severe in my chest,I really thought I was having a heart issues. I am home now day 5 post op and finally the pain in my shoulder as subsided ,the gas pain is a little better,I have been trying to walk but just get too tired. I never thought I would have his much pain! I feel like I need to burp its hard to take a deep breath cause I feel so much pain......just want to feel better!

Is it weird that I don't know where my port is or even what size band I have. My surgeon never came to see me after.

I just caved in and took the liquid Vicodin.. I took 1/2 the dose!

I didn't get to see my doctor either cause we had a blizzard and it was extremely insane in there.. But my doctor just called me an hour ago and explained everything.

Yes! Gas pain was the worst. Try ice and ibuprophen if your doc allowed it. My doc told me to walk 10 minutes every hour I was awake to move the gas, and it helped. I was also sore around my incisions for about a month. I was banded in May, and have no regrets, though!
