Hey all! Had banding yesterday. Feeling ok. Wounds are very sore especially were port is and were the drain was. Had very bad experience with anaesthetic too. But hey it's all over now. Anyone got any tips on how to get comfortable while lying down. My wounds are so sore and feel like I'm bursting them when I move.

I found that if I propped myself on three pillows while sleeping on my back I could sleep. It will get easier everyday.

I had to sleep in a recliner the first night. The second night, I slept in bed on my right side and held a body pillow, and did okay. It does get better pretty quickly. I think I used one of those gel ice packs on the port site too, and that helped a bunch!
