angela_gracee 0 Posted May 18, 2009 (edited) Hi, I was banded on Friday, 15th May 2009. I was experiencing some reflux pain and came across this forum via google. It has been very helpful to know that other people experience similar things with the banding and their suggestions on alleviating it. I'm still only 3 days out from surgery and am struggling a bit but from reading some of the threads i feel very optimistic.

wannabeskinnyb 0 Posted May 18, 2009 Hey there! I was also banded on Friday, May 15th. I get lots of pain in my left shoulder, and kinda feel like a jumbo jet 747 hit me...but other than that, I'm alright. I have no hunger, and sip liquids all day. I did start my period today, though, so the pain from cramps are lumped into the other pain. I plan on going back to work on Wednesday, so hopefully by then all will be close to normal again. (I may be overly optimistic here.) How do you feel? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
angela_gracee 0 Posted May 18, 2009 (edited) I was warned that i may feel pain in my shoulders from the anesthesiologist but fortunately this has not happened to me. I don't feel any hunger and the liquids are filling me enough but my brain is hooked on to wanting what i cant have!
