Yes My Doctor knows and he is stumped as to why? The pain is getting better but still not the way I used to be. I feel like the port is rubbing somehow? Thanks for answering me back. Been trying to find someone who has the same issues

Love the apple and cinnamon straws, never had the veggie but will try, Thank you. Also I eat the baked doritos or baked lays chips. I am a sweet eater so I found sugar free sugar wafers at Walmart, they are great too.

I cannot sleep on my right or left side or on my stomach. If I try on my left I get a sharp sudden horrible pain? I had pains before in lower abdomen by left side of belly button. Also had a CT scan an nothing wrong. Getting annoyed about the sleeping, anyone heard of such pains before? I also have diverticulitus so I am always thinking it is that.

I had one fill and it wasn't enough, so I went back and he put more in. I feel the same way, like I can eat like I used to. There were a few times that if I ate too fast it wouldn't go down, which does suck. I am really trying hard to pick the right foods but I am getting discouraged. I would love some help too and Angie would like to keep in touch if ok?

Hi everyone ... yes I agree it is a struggle but when you start dropping weight and you start feeling better about yourself it is all worth it. I am having a hard time right now feel like I am not losing at all. I had my surgery 5/18 and have lost 26lbs so far. I feel like I want to go back to the liquid part just to see more lbs come off. Does anyone have a diet that they follow? Maybe that would help.. I also love ice cream and usually buy the sugar free Edys brand thats pretty good. Good luck everyone!

OH thank you so much for emailing me. The pain doesn't seem to be going away, I wish it would. I have good an bad days. It does come when I eat even alittle bit. Or I could just be sitting down at computer and BAMM, a huge sharp pain. It comes alot when I try to bend down to pick something up. I am getting upset actually it really hurts a bad burning sharp pain. I can cry. I told my husband that some days I am ready to go to the hospital. I feel like something is rubbing on the band? I also feel it could be a very bad pulled muscle. When I ice it it feels better. Thank you again and please keep me posted if you hear anything on this ... THANK YOU SO MUCH> How is the weight loss coming? I feel it is coming but so slow! Have a good night, Cindy

How is it going? Still pain? I am still same maybe alittle better... and regarding POOP, I am good in that department. I actually got my results from CT scan an there was nothing wrong, no hernia thank god. My doctor really didn't know what it is said it could be a bad muscle pull? So alittle aggravated since I just have to live with it, which doesn't make any sense. Let me know how your feeling.... Cindy

Hey thats is funny but honestly I have diverticulitis... problems with the pooping! I keep saying maybe I need to drink some prune juice? But I still have the pain even when I go. Thanks for the help and the chuckle! Keep in touch ok. It is so nice talking to people who have had same surgery and hearing everyones accomplishments and issues. Cindy

I have the same pain its horrible I could cry. I am going for a CT scan tomorrow. Hopefully I find its nothing serious, I just can't take it anymore. Keep me posted please' Cindy cdashko@yahoo.com

Hi I'm Cindy and I am having the same problem. First it felt like a charliehorse sudden sharp, now I am having sharp burning pains and sometimes sudden. I am going for a CT scan Thursday. Someone said it could be a Hernia which I am praying its not. Please keep me posted as well as I will. Cindy
