  3. Thanks everyone I need the support. I've never been sicker. Today I'm doing good. Just trying to get rid of nausea and my head feels like its going to pop off. I might be released tonight. Thanks
  4. Hey guys.... I was hospitalized 3 days ago and I'm still here! I have what they think is a non related to lap band kidney/UTI infection. I have been in hell for the past 3 days and can't believe this happened. I returned to work for a day then went to ER that night. Doctors said everything looks good with my stomach and GI. I am battling non stop nausea. That and high temperatures. I think I finally broke the fevers. I just can't understand. This has been truly the worse sickness of my life!
  5. I can't believe I got the Flu! I feel like shiz. Why me! I was banded Feb 8th. That was hard enough! I'm feeling so sad and defeated. I went back to work for one day and by 4pm I had a fever and went home. This sucks so badly .. March better be good to me!

  8. So my time is up and it's time to face it! I'm going back to work tomorrow and I'm scarred because I get tired quickly. I do retail management and its non stop moving all day! I hope I get through this! Any tips??

  10. Wooohoo ! I love that you are loving life! I'm newly banded and feeling better and better!
  11. Ok well thanks for the low down. I hope it becomes less soon!
  12. Ok so am I going to be burping like a frat guy for the rest of my life? I was banded 9 days ago. It's annoying how gassy my stomach gets at times. Is this part of the healing process?? Mehhhhhhh!
  13. I'm sorry! That's a rough start. I really hope it gets resolved. After I posted I was doing good. A few days later I had gas radiating in my chest so breathing was impossible. I was literally having what felt like a heart attack. It got better so my brother drove me to walk around the mall(walk walk walk) It happened even worse! I was convinced the lady in the store was going to call 911. She had the phone in her hand!...... So embarrassing. It's going to be rough at first it can only get better!

  18. Holy crap I feel like a new person! The pain is gone I can breathe now normally! I was walking the mall and it looked like I was having a heart attack! I kept walking! But today I feel GREAT! I hope that's the last of it!
  19. I had my period had just ended before my surgery. Then I had my surgery it came back again for a few days.
  20. I can't wait for my gas pain to go away! I'm excited to move on in a week to puréed foods.
