  1. I was told to take nothing bigger than a baby aspirin. I don't think I could get anything bigger than that down since I have trouble with food that I do not chew into baby food consistancy.
  2. I was banded June 2006 and have lost 50 lbs, seems slow and not all fun but a good decision. I like the weight loss pictures at the end of messages. How do you do that? My doctor is Benivedes at the Richardson, TX surgery center. Fills still scare me. The medical crew were nicer to me before surgery than since. Bye
  3. most of the time I can eat small meals without too much discomfort but 4-6 times a week I will get acute high epigastric pain after just 3-4 bites. It doen't seem to matter what the food or what time of day. Three bites of cottage cheese did it to me last time. I have to walk, stretch, and endure for about 20 minutes then it lets up as quick as it started and I can usually finish my meal. My mom uses Levsin for stomach spams but I am not sure about doing that. Anyone with like experiences or have an idea if this can be controlled/prevented in some way? thanks
