    Another "Old Timer" With Issues

    was prepared for the worst because I can't eat a lot, so I didn't think it was esophageal dilation. But I have a very tempermental band. Say the wrong thing to me at dinner and it closes up like a virgin on prom night. The net results of that happening a lot would be esophageal dilation, of course. YES CARLENE I CAN RELATE TO THAT ABOVE, GOOD COMPARISON THOUGH YOU HAVE BEEN BANDED A WHILE AND WAS WONDERING IF THIS WAS YOUR FIRST REAL PROBLEM SINCE BEING BANDED AND WOULD LIKE UPDATES ON YOUR PROGRESS SEEMS LIKE YOU HAVE A LOT OF KNOWLEDGE AND I APPRIECIATE YOU SHARING IT WITH US THANKS IN ADVANCED!!!!! BEST OF LUCK

    May 2007 Banders

    The Morning After Being Banded Slept Like A Baby Finally Around 11 Pm After Walking Some Gas Pains Off Slept On My Side And Back With No Problem Just Had To Be Careful When Rolling Over To Either Side A Little Sore But Not Bad. Still No Hunger Yet Must Be Still Pretty Swollen Inside Never Went This Long With Out Eating Something. For Me I Lifted Up My Shirt In Fornt Of A Mirror And They Shaved My Chest From My Pectoral Down To My Privates Looks Very Weird. Ugly Matter Of A Fact. But I Have Not Used Any Of Pain Medicines Yet A Got Adult Strength Liquid Tylenon How Ever You Spell It. Good Luck To All Later.
