Hi I was banded on Friday. Have had 3 c sections, and my gallbladder removed. NOTHING compared to the chest, shoulder, and back and neck pain (gas they tell me) that I have felt. The first couple days were really rough. It's hard reading that people feel great, and are exercising, and are back at work. When I am still having a hard time taking a deep breath. It will get better hang in there honey
I had surgery Friday morning 3/8/13
I was told no cold liquids (I am an ice fiend)
And no straws.
Yesterday I had a horrible day. So much pain, and gas. I barely sipped water and a little bit of broth.
Today more pain, still have not been able to burp or toot
Walked for 30 minutes.
Only been able to sip water and about 2 ounces of a protein shake.
Is this typical?
I keep reading about people drinking a lot. Everytime I drink I get pains in my shoulders and chest.
I feel whiney! Lol
I was banded yesterday 3/8/13 when I am feeling better i would love to meet up. I live in east mesa off of crismon and the 60.. Pretty Far East. But willing to drive for support
Hi! I'm so happy I found this. I am in east mesa as well. I am getting banded on Friday the 8th. I would love to find a support group, work out partner etc. only a few close people know what I'm doing..
