Very Very Very exciting.... keep us updated!!!

Did u have the surgery that day or did they delay due to the uti?

Caffeine? Do u drink it daily? Just looking for some feedback...

Wow, i'm in total agreement withMis73, that was a seriously foolish think to do!!!!!! We are really here to encourage one another.... and i am encouraging you to STOP!!!!! Please! Let yourself heal!!!!

Sweet!!!!!! That one has already passed but i'm really excited to know that they do have one!!!!

Wow. How did you know that you had a clot? I hope everything is better now?!

I love that!!!!!!!! Lmao.

Lol, I think so, like --- LapBand 2012... Vegas style?! .... Cancun style....?!

Not sure what topic this should go in but... i'm fairly new here, but the support has been absolutely amazing!!!! I just wondered if the forum had ever put on a gathering of some sort?

Has anybody every heard of someone having a blood clot from Lap Band surgery?

Yay!!!!! Super exciting. Please keep up updated!

I have heard of this as well. My surgeon gave me a card but i'm only 6 days post op, lol, still on liquids!

Thankkkkkk you all sooooooo much. I'm doing very well. Each day is better than the one before. I'm eager to have my full energy level back, but that will come in good time. :0)

Hey!! I'm five days banded and yes yes yes. I phoned my surgeon about the pain when I breathed in the second day. He assured me it was normal. And I slepttttttt likes nobody's business. Lol. Your body needs that right now. It needs to recover. If your getting fluids in, even if it's small, that's good... just keep at it! Your going to do great!!! Each day you will feel much better.

Everything will be fine... it's just your nerves. :0) perhaps gargle a bit to soothe your throat.

I was banded on the 6th. I'm not having that issue just yet. But I have read many many many threads that have said the same. So, your definitely not alone. :0)

So exciting Tricia! I was banded 5 days ago. Your going to do great!!!!!! Enjoy the rest and recovery.

Yay! Good for you Antwan. Hope your doing great!!!!

Thanks guys. So great to have this forum and all your support!

I feel like I can "feel" my band. I'm five days post op and I can only consume about 1/4 to 1/2 cup at a time. Is this normal?

I'm happy to see that I'm not the only one!!! It seems like I have some energy in the morning... I feel normal... 1.5 hours later I'm ready for a nap. Lol.

Lol. I basically just posted the same question. I'm four days post op. how about u? I really really hope this passes. It's kinda horrible.

I'm 4 days post op. I'm still feeling nautious. I hate it. Awful. Please any feedback would be greatly appreciated! Any ideas besides gravol?

Just curious... how long did it take you all to get back your full level of energy... even 90% ish???

Thanks so much for all the feed back!!! It's day three for me and Tylenol seems to be doing the job!
