  1. Sudden period tightness

    kim.h replied to Babe's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
    I'm very tight just before my period and ovulation. I have a lot of water retention at these times which causes tissue swelling. It causes swelling of the stoma just like it causes bloating and tight clothes. Sure makes it hard to eat anything at these times

  2. Upper Back Pain

    kim.h replied to halloween2124's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
    I was banded on Feb 13 and I had that feeling for about two weeks. I had my first fill on Apr 1 and I've had that same back pain again. It's not constant and it's not after every meal, so I'm not sure why it's happening. Maybe due to swelling after surgery and then again after a fill??? At least I know now I'm not the only one :thumbup:
