  1. Had my operation at Dolan Park Bromsgrove but live in west Wales so feeling a little isolated at the moment. On the whole I feel well apart from sever pain at night from trapped gas. It's affecting my sleep. It's a strange feeling as I don't know how I'm supposed to feel apart from fleeting hunger and fearful that I'm going to somehow break my band . Would like to talk to all members but would be nice to know someone local as well.
  2. Hi I was banded on the seventh of September, was very sore to begin with but that has subsided, however I'm struggling with trapped wind which is really uncomfortable. It's worse when I lie down def . Mint tea helps as does moving about but it's not great. My start weigh was 18stone 4 now down to seventeen
  3. I am ten days post op and have a very dark bruise by the port area .
