  1. Oh boy! First day back at work, and MAN I was about to die! First of all, no one knows, so no sympathy for walking like a snail! I got to work and immediately had to give tours of the school. I will say that being on my feet all day, did do more good than I thought. The gas is moving around, even though I thought it had to be going away by now. I have to tell you the funniest moment of the day, (although it was not funny at the time) I have a cough, so I took a cough drop. . . well, I swallowed it!!! I thought OMG, I am goign to sit right here and choke in front of everyone! Nothing happened, but I was so worried it would get stuck! I was not as hungry today, so it may just be a "brain" thing! I did get some cough syrup from the dr today, so maybe the cough will get better. I did find out at the end of the day, I was selected to help with a field trip tomorrow, so that should keep me moving. I can't say that I notice a bad smell with the gas as in other kinds, but I could be wrong! Susan- I am glad your x-ray was good!
  2. I am in Arkansas, I had my surgery in Little Rock, but I live in Hot Springs. Today was better, but tonight I am exhausted!
  3. Valerie, I am a 5/4 bandster too! Hope you are doing well!
  4. Susan, My shoulder was a little better today, but it still hurts. I have not called the doctor, but I emailed and they did not reply. That really bothered me since they were so quick to reply before they got my money! I am back at home tonight after a school trip, so hopefully I will rest tomorrow. Tomorrow will be my first day back at work. Let me know what your dr says. Ginger
  5. How are you Susan? I was banded Friday too, and I am having the same problems. I am also very upset that I feel like crap! I should have expected it, but I was trying to be optimistic! Let me know what your dr said! Ginger
  6. My date is 5/11, I am READY! I am also nervous! I just hope this works for me! I am very afraid of failure!
