hahaha! i feel exactly the same thing, my shoulders are hurting and i hiccup a lot. i thought it was abnormal. although, my fingers are numbing for a week now. i wonder if anyone here has an explanation. it could not be my diabetes because the doctor told me to stop my meds until i'm allowed to eat solids. i have been banded for 2 weeks now. i am 27, by the way, and from the philippines. nice to meet you all here.

it is my second week post-op and i still feel a little bloatedness sometimes. my doctor just allowed me to eat Pasta after 2 weeks of pure liquid diet. i have already lost 11 kg and my recovery is good considering that i am also a diabetic. my doctor is very firm when he says "ambulate, ambulate, ambulate!" even when it causes me to get dizzy sometimes. he even urges me to go to the mall, walk around and eat sugar-free ice cream if i want to. you will be okay in a while.
