Yes. And prepare yourself for post op emotions as well. You will be feeling what you feel now and also be in pain. I'm still in quite a bit of pain 11 days post op. I'm optimistic it will end soon!! I just keep my eyes on the prize!!!

Hi! I have had my band for 8 days and live in the mid-cities area! The gas pains are about to kill me but I'm optimistic!! Lol

I'm 8 days banded and the pains from the gas are still killing me. Heating pad and walking are the only things that seem to help at all. Been sleeping in a recliner and last night was the first night I could sleep in my bed. It was heavenly! So I guess it's getting better. Can't wait for this air to get out of me!!!
