C-section and the lap band

[vluckey 1]

I had a c-section last week to give birth to my daughter. My band has become even more tight than when I first got it. My band has no fill in it. Prior to surgery, I had very little restriction. Since the surgery, totally tight.

It's been 7 days and it doesn't seem to be improving. Has anyone else had this or anything similar? Is there anyone who's had a c-section since the band?

I emailed my doc this morning, but I thought I'd get some more input. PLEASE HELP!

it takes a while for your swelling from the c-section incision to go down... I don't know if that has anything to do with it, but the c-section is a major surgery... since they in a sense.. "moved your guts around to delilver"

Best advice would be to call your LapBand doctor and ask.
