Roxann68 3 Posted July 24, 2013 I was banded yesterday and I have to say I'm doing great. More of a tummy ache than pain. Keeping moving helps gas. I didn't sleep well lying down coughed alot but if I propped up I was good. Drinking Unjury unflavored in Water today and unjury chicken broth. Overall not as bad as I expected. 1 dawalsh reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Roxann68 3 Posted August 23, 2013 How are all my July banded pals doing? I'm doing okay. Starting to get hungry but still having stuck issues at least I think that's what the feeling is. I feel like I can't breathe and my esophagus gurgles then after short time I burp or make more noises and we're good. It's strange and I'm not sure why it happens because more often then not its soft foods. I can't really eat meats well and I only have 2cc in band. The nurses said it wouldn't make a difference but something is ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
