  1. Many times they can fix a slip through removing fluid and allowing swelling to go down. Don't get discouraged yet as it could just be something causing the tightness. It's so easy to jump to Conclusions and think the worst. I had a slip with my band so if you need someone to talk to, I am here.
  2. Walking is a major key to it passing...
  3. I went and everything seems okay... So hopefully
  4. 3 weeks post op and going to Zumba class but usually do the sauna after.. Any advice on if this is a good idea. I forgot to ask My doctors office.
  5. Sorry to hear about your troubles. That does soun scary and would have me worried too cause I am that type of person. Although you do have to remember the aspiration was caused because you had been previously throwing up alot (I assume). I would think in a few Months you wouldn't be puking prior to surgery which should make the chances smaller.

  7. I'm not feeling that way but I am post band removal... 2 weeks!
  8. Chicken, broccoli are my two largest culprits...
  9. I explain it as choking but farther down. You can't eat or drink anything else and it just hurts. All I wanted to do was make it stop!
  10. Thanks for the support. I thought it was rude too just in the way it was presented. Could have easily just asked the questions.

  12. And if you have nothing nice to say or act rudely, please don't reply to my post. Thanks!
  13. I had my band taken out, I forgot that so no It's not my port.
  14. I am 1 1/2 weeks post surgery and under one of my scars it's a lump. It's the same incision they used on my first surgery and I was thinking it was scar tissue. Will it go away?
  15. Just drink what you can and all will be okay. Everyone out of surgery is in the same boat but all make out okay on the little that we are allowed to have.
  16. I just had mine removed but still here to support those with it.
  17. I'm 26 and here for support as well!
