    does it hurt?

    i found out that my doctor does numb you first. he also does it in radiology at the hospital so he can see whats going on. I thought that was cool because he shouldnt have a problem finding the right spot, right. he said he can check right away for reflux also. im excited. july 23rd! i started pureed foods today. Now i can't wait even more for the fill so i don't have to puree any more. seriously something i never want to do again. :thumbs_down: thanks everyone for the information.

    does it hurt?

    Thanks everyone! that helps so much. I really didnt know what to expect. It sounds pretty easy though. Im mostly excited (just a tiny bit nervous :thumbup: ) to get the first fill and get this thing moving!

    does it hurt?

    I was just banded on june 23rd. Im about 2 1/2 weeks away from my first fill. does it hurt? do they just jab a needle into the port? Im nervous about the fill.

    Please reassure me.

    Im a week and a half post op and I've been going through the same thing. I called in and spoke to a nurse and she recommended i include some yogurt during the day to put back some of the stuff in my intestines depleted from all the antibiotics during surgery. i've been doing that and i have felt better. i've also been laying on a heating pad at night and thats helps alot. I'm also very sick of the Protein shakes. Thats all I drank besides Water for the 2 weeks before my surgery. So I've been drinking New whey liquid Protein in water during the day and that has been a lot easier. Hang in there. It was a great decision. one more week and i think we'll both be feeling great!
