Hi, I am 12 days post-op and have just been told that the pain in my left side at my port area is most likely a hematoma. I am freaking out. I am scheduled to go back to work in 6 days and still can't sit up for more than a few hours at a time due to the pain. Very discouraging...

I got banded yesterday as well - Oct. 29 - and am feeling a bit uncomfortable. Thought it was a tight feeling in my throat but it may be the gas issue that ppl on here speak of. I am excited for my new life but also nervous about changing all the habits that go along with eating however and whenever you wish.... Thanks to this forum; it's been a tremendous help.

My surgery is in the morning, Oct. 27th at 9am! I hope we can stay in touch and chart our progress together! (I am nervous too....) Take care.
