  1. I know how you feel, and I have been following directions of not overdrinking, especially after a day nightmare of total restriction and being worried of what I had done to myself. But I am 5 days postop and back to work 2 days ago, and I feel much better now with a positive attitude. My surgery was performed in Puert Vallarta Mexico.
  2. I have now done surgery #2, and Dr. asked me to trust him on this one, and seems to have worked, the only thing is that it seems like it was an open surgery because I have about a 6 inch scar. BUt now everything is normal and I cannot feel any restriction at all, except filling up quickly. How have you felt ?
  3. Thanks for the answer, but so far I am not even swallowing anything and the solution was to put this tube into my stomach wjth only the function to reñease pressure and make space for the swelling.
  4. I just had lap band put in 2 days ago and still in hospital since they started me off with ice cubes and couldnt keep down the liquid, not even my own spit would go down; so after 3 endoscopies they put a tube down to my stomach so it would give in more space and give more time for swelling to go down, have you heard of this before, and will it help ?
  5. This is my first time here. Anybody out there ?
