I'm just wondering if anyone else has the same symptoms that I do around their TOM. My whole body aches, gas, bloating, and a severly upset stomach. It's almost like the flu. Before I was banded I never once had any of these symptoms around my TOM so would banding make that change? I've been trying to figure out why I'm feeling so miserable every so often without eating anything different, etc. and the only thing I can assume is it's my monthly "gift". :blush: Anyone else?

I had a bad spell in the first year after banding and it turned out I had developed endometriosis - its in my family but I'd escaped and suddenly to get it at 39, 40 my doc said it must be hormonal disturbance caused by the weight loss.

I had a laparoscopy which cleaned it all off my bowel and I've been absolutely fine ever since.
