  1. I had gas pain for around 6 weeks very bad shoulder pain .. Yea burps can be more than you would normally experience . I do suffer that
  2. Yea stop when you feel pressure .. It's sort of different later on as you heal .. but your stomach has just been stitched, you can always have more later :-)
  3. So how long has it taken you in total? You must be so proud
  4. Sorry for all the questions .. I'm only just starting my journey and I'm just amazed at your success ☺️

  20. Hi I'm having the same problem . I was banded on the 1st July , my 1st fill was a nightmare and am not convinced the fluid went in, I went for second fill last week and she couldn't access the port . Currently waiting to see surgeon this week :-(
  21. Congratulations .. Yes the gas pain is so painful but it goes eventually and is a small price to pay :-)
