Hello there - I too had the band surgery on Friday Dec. 17th with Dr. McCloskey! I am wondering if we saw each other when waiting for our x-ray on the last day in the hospital? How are you feeling now? I am feeling really good and getting use to eating only little amounts of what we can eat right now. I had to go back Monday after the surgery to have 3 cc's removed from the band because I had a lot of swelling around the band post-op. Let me know how you are doing! Hope great!

I woul see an autoimmune specialist doctor. If not RA there are a lot of other similiar autoimmune diseases that have similair symptoms. I have several autoimmune diseases and could not be diagnosed until I saw a specialist. I hope they find out what it is quickly for you! I just had the band a week and a half ago, and it did aggravate my symptoms, but with you being 2 years out, I would guess it is probably not related. Good luck! God Bless!
