  1. I experienced similar emotions. I too, have a little one and my biggest fear was complications. I was banded on June 4th. Everything went fine. THe scariest was being taken in to OR, I was crying uncontrollably. I'm sure your are in good hands. Have faith. Good lick.
  2. Yeeeeeeees. I was banded a week ago and am suffering terribly with left shoulder pain. I'm on liquids, so it can't be that i'm eating too much. Laying down seems to help, but standing is rough. My doctor says it could have been the way I was laying on the operating table. Who knows. Hope it gets better.
  3. Can anyone help me with the BMI Ticker? What do I do? Thanks!
  4. Hi everyone. I was banded June 4th, 2007. It's great reading all of your comments, it sure does help.
  5. thanks! good luck to you too!
  6. Hi I was banded Monday and have gas pain horribly also. It goes all the way up to my collar bone area. Gas X does nothing, walking does seem to help.
  7. Hi all! I was banded Monday and not feeling so great. I can't seem to breathe that well and have awful pain around my collar bone area. SOund strange? Any advise, ideas, support...:help:
