Banded 7-19-05

I was banded 7-19-05. So far I've lost approximately 10 lbs. I got my staples removed yesterday, but I am still in soooo much pain! When will it not hurt anymore? Can anyone help?

Wow, thats brutal, when I get mine done my Dr. is going to use the invisistitches (someone else can tell you what they are called, they are very popular). No wonder you are still hurting.

Collegeteacher, what exactly is hurting? Are you still sore from surgery or is it something else? Referred pain in the shoulder can, I understand, go on for some time.

Surgery is a big deal and we all heal at our own speed. You will feel better, day by day, just rest up and be good to yourself. And welcome to bandland!!

Welcome to bandland! Hopefully you will start feeling better each day. You might try using a heating pad.
