  1. Does it really go away, I am not dealing with this ok, I feel like I can't do anything without getting that twingy burning feeling, I am also second guessing if I did the right thing, I was banded on 8/18 and I know that I am not completely healed but this is unbearable, I put a call into the docto's office just waiting on a call back. I figured you probably could give me better advice and maybe a few suggestions since you have gone through this, any ideas how to minimize the pain.
  2. Does this pain truly ever go away, I had my surgery on 8/18 and for the last couple of days i'm hurting it is unbearable, I had my post op check up 3 days ago and they said everything looked ok but at that time I didn't feel this pain, can I have done something this early to cause damaged to my port, I thought I was being real cautious.
  3. I also had a hiatal hernia fixed which I never knew I had until I picked up my medical clearance paperwork, anyway they fixed it the day of surgery 8/18 and now I am experiencing alot of gas and reflux pain. I know that gas is common but I already went through that stage the first week and a half I had it in my shoulders, my concern now is the reflux do you think it is possible that it wasn't corrected and now I am suffering from reflux or do you think it's still gas that just moved to a different area.
