Hello, I had my surgery 4-22-13. Things have been ok for the most part. Lost 45 lbs so far. I don't feel much restriction. ANYWAY, the reason for this post is because since about 4pm yesterday I have had a pain under my breasts, both of them, like across my mid part about my "belly" level with my sternum.. It kinda feels like gas pains. I took gasx, I then took a Percocet. Not sure which one helped, but it went away. I went to sleep, woke up ok, but it started about 10, I took another Percocet and it is back now. I don't want to keep taking medication if something is going on. Do you think it could be a slip or gallbladder? Or maybe gas, but I have to say, I didn't have any gas problems, not really even after surgery.

I'm in Rockland county ny.so I am super close to paramus. I'm 32, 2 little kids. I had my surgery April 22, lost 40 pounds so far

My nut said rice, Pasta, bread, could swell in the pouch and stretch it so limit it. But she said I can eat it if must.

Plication!, don't gain weight before surgery! Take 2 Weeks off work

depends on ur dr. mine was none. ButI didloose

When was ur surgery, how quick did u loose?

Do u have a nutritionist? I was banded aprill 22, I was at a stand still and meet with my nut, it helped, I also have been trying to use my fitness pal and track as much as possible. The scale finally started moving, I had 5cc at surgery and 1 fill 1 cc. I dont have much restriction, a little, I could eat 2 pieces of pizza! Mostly running on will power right now.,I hear ya though. Its so damn distressing and fustrating...good luck, hang in there
