Terridoodle- do you think that the restriction I feel in my stomach is okay? I feel as if I can "feel" the band. It is really bothersome.
-
The restriction I feel is a lot! When I feel hunger pains it's excessive. I have lost weight (and I am sure the pounds will come flying off you too) but I really want this feeling to go away. I seem to have it regardless of whether I eat (drink) or not.

I actually feel restriction from the band. I called my doc this morning and he told me it's not common, but has heard of it. He wasn't too helpful, and I am still hoping it goes away eventually (he wasn't able to tell me if it would go away)

Hi there- do you feel any discomfort around where the band actually is on your stomach??
-
WHen did you have surgery? My stomach feels really full...is this gas too?

I am just about 4 days pos-op and still have an enormous amount of gas pain. I have an overfull feeling in my stomach and feel discomfort when I take deep breaths. Help??!:cursing:
