I got banded yesterday (Thursday). Pain is not so bad. Just a general aching. Has anyone else had diarrhea? Its horrible. I know they say liquid in/ liquid out but geez. Have had it since I started the Clear Liquids the day before surgery.

Congrats on the banding!!

I was banded June 12 and had the diarrhea the entire time I was on liquids before and after surgery. I felt if I wanted to drink something, I could not leave the house because I knew where I would need to be. It will get better, I promise. Now that I am on mushies, it is much better and nice to have normal BMs again.
