I am 2 1/2 week out and started having alot of pain in my left side and back area. feels like a kidney problem, dull ache when I walk, sit, or stand. I feel great when I am lying down. I saw my Dr. and he said the band is attached near the back so he was not concerned. HAS ANYONE experienced that pain and how long will it last? Also I have not lost any weight in 6 days and am falling off the wagon alittle. I feel hungry and have eaten out twice. I have no restriction and can't wait until I get my first fill.

I am three months out, and get severe back pain when I overeat. It lasts a couple hours and really sucks. Might not be the same thing, but I thought I would throw it out threre...

I was banded on 3/12/09 and have that same problem. I had just chalked it up to sleeping wrong. I have seen other posts about this so now I am not so sure. Keep me posted if you find out something.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
