  1. Didn't your doctor prescribe Prilosec OTC? I had to take it for 3 months post op. I had no reflux in pre op testing and didn't have any problems after either. I hope you are feeling better. I really recommend also staying away from the spicy foods for a few months. I tried the spicy stuff and it didn't sit well in the beginning. But now spicy stuff is great for me. Also, the stool problems drink that water at least 8 glasses a day I know it is hard, but it will really help. Also, remember your used to going to the bathroom more often. Now you don't eat near as much:-) Hope this helps:smile2: I am one year out today is my 1year BANDiversary.
  2. Hi, my name is Jessica. I will be banded in March or April depending on how long it takes insurance to go through. I am 28 and have been overweight since the 3rd grade. I also have PCOS and have had trouble conceiving. I am hoping that after I have my banding done, I will be able to conceive in a year or two. I will be banded in Pittsburgh, PA at Magee Womans Hospital. I have been reading through the forums and am glad I came across this site. Have wonderful day everyone.:mad2:
