hey there everyone, got banded on 6/26/08. got REALLY sick. my bowels backed up inside and caused an infection. saw dr. this last mon (7th) and she sent me for emergency cat-scan to see if i had an abcess, no abcess but huge pocket of air caught in my back and still LOTS of pain in my abdomin. lost 10 lbs in 12 days. has anyone else experienced as much pain as i have gone through. no fill for me until 6-8 weeks. i have also had the FULL feeling but just because i ate and drank together but i was also super dehydrated. just wondered how quickly others got well, or if anyone got sick like i did. i hope this pain goes away soon, almost 4 weeks out from surgery and still hurting. she but me on anti-biotics just in case.:cool:
