::Waving Hello to All:: I was banded on Fri 5/9/08. Came home from the hospital yesterday. I'm in pain but chugging along. I agree with others I think the most pain is in the port area and the gas/bloat. I also had pain in my shoulders from anesthesia pockets. Welcome to the other side for many of you! XoXo
