October bandsters



Recommended Posts

I was banded on the 9th and about a week after the surgery the pain seemed to dissipate but I ended up getting a bladder infection that kept the pain going. The gas pain last several days and will go away. Best wishes and good luck to October bandsters!

Day 4 and gas pains are still killing me. Lot of unproductive burps & I noticed that my bladder doesn't give me the signal that I need to urinate. Could this be due to gas? Has anyone else had this problem?

Yesterday and today post op days one and two I sometimes have trouble staying awake. I sit on the couch and fall asleep.

I do too...its the most comfortable sometimes. Although I think being too comfy caused me to not move around as much as I should. Im forcing myself to get up more. I went to Khols today for half an hour....it helped...although I was a nervous wreck someone was gonna run into me. Tomorrow...just around the block...less people to worry about!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
