Thanks so much I will tell my surgent!

Hi I wanted to know if anyone has had major surgery after getting banded? I am going to have to have my thyriod removed and was wondering if that will complicate anything if I have the band now. And no I have not told my Doc that I have the band. I will if I need to though. Thanks for answering! CG

I am having that right now and kinda scared. I am having lots of pain around my port. Like when I first had the surgery, for know reason. I am a month out of surgery now, but just started to feel port soarness again! Any thoughts? Thanks for the response. CG

I want dye the pain is so band in my should. I swear I am not a wimp either. DR said it was gas and take advil! I need your feed back! Thanks CG P.S. I walk like crazy.
