Banded Today!

[newlife828 17]

Hello to all! So blessed to have found this site as I've sifted through various forums during my pre-op week.

I was banded this morning and am now at home resting and drinking/sucking my ice chips and walking around well. I cannot wait until my throat heals from that tube, although, I am grateful the gas pains are finally dissipating.

Just wanted to say hello to everyone and that I'm super excited.

Welcome to the world of the banded! Keep up the walking. That helped me recover faster and not complain of the discomfort. I love my band and haven't wished it gone a minute since I was banded. Listen to your bariatric doctor & their staff when you have questions. We are here to cheer you on & wish you good health & happiness. :wub:

Hello and Congrats I was banded on August 23 I had a lots gas a pain the first couple of days, and today I feel very good little gas and hardly any pain.

Thanks and hello to you all!

Sorry for responding so late. I was out of it yesterday, of course, but I slept well.

I walked outdoors a little last night and around the block early this morning. I'm releasing a lot of gas today, finally! I'm still a little sore left side under breast, but not as bad. I have a perscription for Phenergan and I think I'll have it filled just to be on the safe side.
