  22. I Am Having A Terrible Sharp Pain In My Left Lung When I Take In A Deep Breath I Spoke To My Doc And He Is Sending Me To The Er! Does Anyone Know What It May Be - It Not Gas As I Can Tell. Other Than That Everything Has Been Fine And Now Im Nervous!
  23. i am newly banded but i feel that a few sips of liquid fills me ALOT
  24. it seems that when i lean forward or anything the blood rushes to where my port is and its intense - meaning painful! evern when i use the toilet and have to lean forward to pick up my pants - it hurts more than it any other position - so i dont think that will work for me! anyone else feels this when they lean forward?
