Thanks for the reply...it is more in the middle than the side. I don't know about having it feeling like this for a week:crying::thumbup: I guess I don't have much choice.:laugh: Thanks again...

Thanks Crystal...You know after your response and you said left side, I realized it was my LEFT not my RIGHT side..:laugh: Wow, pretty bad when I can not tell my left from right...lol My pain started sometime early this A.M. and everytime I take a deep breath the sharp pain kicks in..:thumbup: Hopefully it will subside soon.... G

That is awesome, thanks so much for posting the link. :eek: G

I'm not advocating throwing up at all. Unfortunately, it was my only way to relieve the painful hiccups that I was having. I wish I could have found a better solution... G

I was banded on November 4th and I had the WORSE :rolleyes2: case of hiccups. Everytime I took a sip of Water, it would gurgle and then settle down. If I ended up having too much water in my system, then I would have the hiccups for about an hour until I discovered how to get rid of them, throw up. :cool2: That doesn't sound like fun, but it was great relief and the hiccups stopped. By day 3, my hiccups subsided and I felt better. G

I can say that I didn't experience the gas pains that everyone talked about :thumbup:. I consider myself to be extremely lucky:thumbup:. Other than being bloated the first day, today my stomach almost feels normal...:rolleyes2:

Hello fellow bandsters. I was banded on Monday 11/03/2008 and I have a hard enough time with my Water least of all any Protein. The first night was hell with the hiccups and the frothy Fluid...lol I'm now 2 days post-op and fell better, but still have some issues with the hiccups. I sipped on an Atkins drink today to make sure that I get some protein in me, but other than that just water, water and water...lol As far as hunger goes, what is hunger??? LOL
