Banded yesterday and feel terrible!



Recommended Posts

Hi Jetlagjane!

Welcome to the banded side...im a week and a half new myself. A few days after my surgery I did endt up calling the clinic as I had such a pressure/discomfort where the port was. It felt like someone was just pushing down. my hear t was also kinda hurting if that makes sense. She told me it was all normal and would decrease in intensity as the days went by. I had the surgery June 7 and everyday is getting better for me. I still have some weird feelings inside but I expect that sort of stuff.

Like everyone is saying everyday gets better! Do what I did...keep counting the days down till something else exciting comes...like the shower, the full Fluid stage and next week counting down to puree....it will get easier :)

hey consafo,

Did you take your little strips off your cuts too? even your port one. I can't remember if they told me to do that or not, or was I dreaming. The last couple of days have been a blur.

Jetlagjane, NOOOOO

Don't take those puppies off yet!!!

Did they give you the little folder thing with information?

Well, in there is states you take those off on day 7 through 10, and the cuts should be healed before you take them off

Yeah, the days become less blury...i swear that demrol have me a stutter...lol

Marcar35,

I wish I could afford Chanel products!

I'm a fashion student, so it would make my day to try on the designers I aspire to be!!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
