Banded 6Th August 2012 Wales



Recommended Posts

Had my operation at Dolan Park Bromsgrove but live in west Wales so feeling a little isolated at the moment. On the whole I feel well apart from sever pain at night from trapped gas. It's affecting my sleep. It's a strange feeling as I don't know how I'm supposed to feel apart from fleeting hunger and fearful that I'm going to somehow break my band .

Would like to talk to all members but would be nice to know someone local as well.

Hi! Glad you are doing well after surgery. Make sure you are walking a lot. If you had you surgery in August, the gas pain should be gone by now. Remember that it will take the full six weeks to feel really good. Your body needs that healing time. Follow your doctors food and Water instructions. Let us know if you have any questions!

Your gas should be gone by now since Sept 6. SIP your Water and stay on liquids for a few more days to heal the stomach area. Protein shakes will give you most of what you need.

Best wishes and good luck on your recovery.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
