Just now got registered.Got my first band on Jan.21 2008 And my second one on Jan. 27.The first one was too small and bruised my stomach.Went 5 days before the decision was made to take it out and replace it with the larger one.Never threw up, as such.Just thich foamy stuff and it would usually come up within 15 seconds.Doing great on my second band and have lost 26 pounds since my pre-op appointment on Jan 11.Im pretty sure I had a PB beginning the day came home from the hospital.only mine was not food mine was tissue from my stomach that had swollen out over the hole.tried from Jan.24 until Jan 27 to get the swelling to go down with steroids Didnt work.
