  1. Thanks for checking on me. I'm itchy beyond words and just having a hard time with everything : /. I'm trying to make it best I can. I really appreciate you checking on me.
  2. Thank you guys.
  3. Cograts!!! Super exciting
  4. Thanks everyone. I hope in a month I look back at all this and want to kick myself for being so annoying.
  5. I think I have a high tolerance for pain. I haven't had to use the pain medicine at all and was out of the recovery area in 20 min. I'm allergic to a lot of things and I'm wondering if I'm allergic to the glue. Is that possible? The itch is unreal.
  6. I know I feel like I'm always complaining, but I am losing my mind. After breakdowns crying because of how hard this is at first, leg pain, laughing pain, gas pain, and all that now my incisions itch so bad I can't sleep. How long does this last??? I can't take it anymore. Right now, I would not recommend this to anyone else. So frustrated. I'm sorry.
  7. Ugh now I'm scared and can't sleep. The regrets of getting this are bothering me more and more.
  8. Thanks everyone. Just watching it now. I'm probably going to head to the doc tomorrow to be safe.
  9. The pain, particularly the gas pain, is the worst.
  10. Every post I've read says the 3rd day was the worst. It was the worst day for me too and I didn't have any other procedure done. It will get better. Good luck!
  11. I everyone. I have a tingly feeling in one leg. I called the doc and they told me to wait and see and if it got worse to go to the er. It's not worse but it's really uncomfortable. I had surgery on Wednesday, June 13. Anyone else ever have this?
  12. Day three was the absolute worst. I was banded on June 13. Good luck!
  13. I've been walking and don't feel much relief. I haven't gotten any protein today at all. I feel so full. I hope it gets easier and better for you too. Keep in touch. Let's see how the rest of the week goes.
  14. So my stomach has been making nonstop noise all day, the gas pains are the worst (3days post op) I feel so full and have barely had any water all day. How am I supposed to get down this protein? Today I'm supposed be starting full liquids. It's Saturday and the office is closed. I don't know what to do. I'm still going crazy, questioning my decision, but I'm still trying to keep all the positive things people said in mind. I just don't know what to do.
  15. The gas pain is the worst
  16. Third day after surgery or does that include the day you had surgery? I really hope this doesn't get worse
  17. I really appreciate all the tips. I'm telling my friend I feel like I'm dying. I have been walking but I am getting so tired so easily. I'm trying to keep everything in mind and learning how to deal with these changes. I keep reading other threads trying to learn.
  18. Thank you! I feel awful. Can't wait to actually be able to eat something.
  19. Hi everyone, I'm Stella and just had the procedure on Wednesday, June 13. I am having serious regrets now-mainly due to the gas pain. Has anyone felt like they made the wrong choice? I am scared that this awful feeling will never go away. Thanks, Stella
