  1. Wow ok, I don't have any fluid in my band and I'm still freaking out a little???³ but it makes me feel better to know that you have 5cc and the pills go down. But I'm still on the clear diet and I'm starving!!
  2. I'm just so scared about this whole stuck thing I really don't wanna go through it, is it possible to get stuff stuck if you don't have any fluid in your band?
  3. I thought maybe it was acid reflux, I took a Prilosec, are any of you having problems swallowing pills? My doctor gave me some pains meds in pill form I've been crushing them and adding some Tylenol to it, he says its ok to swallow them but I'm just scared! How do I know what's too big?
  4. I was banded on Friday the 2nd, surgery went great didn't have any problems, but I was in pretty bad pain after surgery. The pain has gotten somewhat better now, I think the gas is starting to move around more, I've been walking and trying to get as much fluid in as possible but it's hard when you have a ton of gas pain. I'm also having this weird pain that starts at the top of my stomach and rolls up my esophagus then goes away, I keep thinking its gas but nothing ever comes out. Has anyone else experienced this?
