3 days post op

ok so I am banded. 3rd day now :smile2: So this is wat i am feeling. The big cut for the port in the bottom hurts like heck when i sit or lay and when i go to get up. Then when I cough it hurts so band and stings for a lil bit like it will rip open. They gave me mepergan fortis for pain because it has an anti nausia in it but i really dont think it helps much besides making me sleep. So next thing I am more hungry now then before the band and I was on 2 weeks liquid before the band lol Yes I know the band is empty. Lets see besides that..well thats the main things.

Day 3 after surgery is always the worst--from what I have heard and experienced. Today is day 4 for me, and it is definitely a better day than yesterday. I just want to be like 6 months out and look back on these days and not remember how miserable they were.
