HI everyone I am now banded and two days gone.

At the moment I am just relaxing and trying to get used to moving a little slower than usaul.

The day I left the hospital they did not give me any pain relief tablets, however they told me to just take Panadol or pandeine. Just as I walked out I ahd to go back in to ask for some tablets as I thought I would not make it he in a ggod state of mind.

After taking the tablets on an empty somach I new they would not stay down, as I do not cope with no food and tablets.

My food did not stay down after Breakfast as I think the anthestic made me a little sick. So trying to be sick and not hurt even more than I already was, was a little hard going.

On the way home, I had to do a quick stop on the side of the road and bring up the tablets that I knew would not stay down. I am finding the best pain relief at the moment is the panadine dissovables. I have to take these every four hours.

I had a better night sleep last night, managed to sleep on my side with a pillow restng underneath.

I am hearig alot of wind moving around and sounds like I am really hungry when I am not.

The foods I am taking at the moment is porridge for breakfast or puree fruit, lunch is Soups and Snacks are youghurt and dinner so far again soups.

Other wise all is going well for me at the moment.

I was banded on 3/31 and so far this week I've had Carnation Instant Breakfast, cream Soups, pudding ect. I'm hoping that I can have pureed/soft foods next week - I'm pretty hungry

I guess every Dr. is different. I am on these stupid Protein Drinks for 3 weeks! 5 days left. Congrats and good luck!
