losethemess 14 Posted August 22, 2010 Banded 8/16 and I had a hernia repair. The intense pain is not fun...liquid vicodin....my friend but i dont want to take in the 64 0z of Fluid yikes...it hurts so bad>> I was banded the same day and also had a hiatal hernia repair. I also have chest pain and love my meds, Hydrocodone is my case. I posted something about this, this week and few banders who also had hernias repaired complained of the same problem so I think it's normal. I use the breathing thing they gave me at the hospital. That helps a little. Drinking Water and coughing wih a pillow over your stomach also helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
