stomach hurts

[ashley 2009 19]

OK I've had lap band since march 14 2013 and I've lost about 70 lbs and I just recently the past 2 week have this really bad viral cold and I'm constantly cough in and now my stomach hurts where my lap band is. Should I worry

if you are worried or concerned, please call your doctor

Hi Ashley,

I also have been coughing my brains out recently with a band upper resp. infection. You should definitely go see the Dr. b/c I was told it's possible to cough so hard you can actually break ribs!

That didn't happen for me..but I was/am sore a bit from the constant coughing, the band and port is all good..just using those cough muscles too much

I hope your feeling better soon!
