Went for my first fill today & they didn't numb it. It was a little painful but didn't last long. Not sure yet if mine is too tight or not tight enough because I haven't eaten anything. Good luck.
Yes, I was like that after one week post op & I believe it's because I was hungry, in pain with gas, etc. Now, two weeks post op I'm not emotional because I can at least have soft foods now. Keep your head up. We have to pray for better days.
I'm still having gas pains as well & I'm day 12 post op. It feels good to be on soft foods vs liquids now, but this discomfort us awful. I just keep praying & each day is a little different. I was regretful at first, but now I'm not. I'm ready for what this journey has in store for me. Hope it gets better for you. I'm here if you need me. My family is very supportive & my husband is the best, but sometimes you need people that are going through the same thing. Take care.
Hi band friends. I'm one week post op & wondered when will the discomfort stop? They repaired a hiatal hernia as well & I still can't burp, I'm extremely tired even though I'm taking vitamins & I'm having constipation issues. Any suggestions?
