Did you have any bladder infection because of your gallbladder or any constant urination? I just found out I have gallstones and was wondering if maybe they are related to why I urinate so much.

Hit me up too if you'd like to know anything I am 22 and got banded in February 2010 at 19.

I am 22 I was banded when I was 19 if you have any questions about later on or just period please message me I'll be happy to talk with any of you.

You should go for it. Especially with you being young and in college if your already not out there and social it will definitely open up a lot of those doors. I had mine when I was 19 in February 2010 and now 22 and I was very anti-social and going to college was awkward but I don't worry about the same things I did when I was overweight and it makes the experience a lot easier. I was however not on campus when I had mine but the recovery time isn't too long so as long as you take the time to watch your diet for as long as your doctor says as far as drinking fluids and watch what you eat overall I think you would be fine. Plus if you do run into anything I am sure you have a Clinic on campus which the nurse can help you with whatever. I would still keep in contact with your doctor if you live further away at a college than maybe get a referral to a doctor in case of emergencies. Because being new to the band can be scary for some people and hey you never know you may find someone on your campus who has it too. Where do you go to college if you don't mind me asking?

I got banded in February of 2010 almost two years post-op I was 19 when I got banded and I am 22 now. I would be happy to answer questions as well I am going for a check up today actually. Feel free to message me.

I had that this past week and i have started taking OTC prilosec and it helped i have had a good night sleep since. i kept on choking n coughing up brownish mucus and it tasted very sour it was very gross. i even tried sleeping sitting up but it didnt help. I however am supposed to have my period today so may be pregnant but not sure. hope that helps

Okay since I last blogged I was getting back from being in terrible pain and the emergency room from the pain pump that was in me. Now that it has been resolved I got sick about a 2 weeks ago and I had it coming out both ends. I think there was a slight bug going around here where I live cause everyone I work with has been sick. I moved out of my parents house on the 12th of Feb. and it has been great since. I live on the third floor now and I guess the upside is I get good leg exercise the bad part i'm out of breath when I get to the top. lol What can you do right? So I have been eating more than I am supposed to because I feel no restriction and I have been feeling hungry I try not to but I mean I can't starve. So I went to get my fill yesterday my 10cc band to a 6.4 cc. I am feeling a bit restriction I am on fluids right now so I haven't eaten any actual food yet so we will see a few days from now how it is. On another note I haven't been exercising too much besides up and down the stairs here and moving so I signed up for a taekwondo class and had my first class today. I plan to do twice a week. That is probably all I can handle it is intense and great workout. Plus you learn self defense what more do you need right. It's an hour class and the most I have worked out in a few years. So I am proud to say they kicked my ass in that class. But I made it through the whole thing without passing out. Thanks for reading. Goodnight.

My doctor told me to drink a warm glass of Water before I go to bed and when I wake up before i eat in the morning just in case there is food stuck in your band. He said the warm water usually pushes it down avoiding the "stuck food heart-attack you talk about." and reduces chances of getting gastric ulcers as well.
