Hey! I had my gall bladder taken out May 2013 and I was banded 3 weeks ago. The only issue I have is gas. But I had that before lapband. Now it's just a little more. But no other issues. ????

Thanks everyone. Feeling much better. I took gas x, hydrocodone, and phenergan. Went to sleep sitting up last night. Today I'm just going to go back to liquids. That pain scared me yesterday. Dr said bc of my liver biopsy as well that I'm still swollen. So no mushy foods for me for awhile.

I was banded on 2-7-14. Been on liquids until yesterday. Today I think I over did it. I ate one cup of mushy food every four hours. Now I'm in soooo much pain. Sharp pain in back and side. It's def not gas from surgery. I was scared to start mushy foods. Felt like it was too early but dr told me to start it so I can start my solids soon. Has anyone ever had this pain before? Please help...I've had the pain for 3 hours now. No relief

Congrats. Just had my last Friday and I'm still not hungry. Forcing myself to eat mushy foods. I have a lot of swelling as well bc they took biopsy of my liver. So that could be y I'm not hungry. But much success to you on your journey

What's plication?

I was banded on feb 7th at true results and feel great. Down 28lbs since liquid diet. So tomorrow will be 3 weeks that I lost the weight! Excited about my journey! Hope I can keep in touch with more San Antonio banders! Much success to you all
