Im finally a bandster!!!!

Ok as of Monday Jan 11, 2010 I officially became a bandster :thumbup:. I didnt have much pain, gas, or complications it was a success. But I do have one question did anyone experience the pressure in the chest area like somethings stuck there if so how long does it last because its so irritating. Other than that I feel great, now im on the big road to recovery and major weight loss:thumbup:.

Hey! I was banded on Jan 5th and I also had extreme pain/pressure in my upper chest area the first few days after surgery. It felt like I was having a heart attach! My surgeon said that was also gas pain because the gas can rise up. Try taking gas-X they come in strips like breath mints. Not sure how much they will help it helped me a little bit. Good Luck with everything!

Thanks I made sure to stock up on them they help a little bit.
