Hi, I too, was banded on the 13th. I have had some chest pains which I am pretty sure are gas....it seems to kind of roll across the chest and can be very uncomfortable at times...taking Gas-X, seems to be better then and if I walk a bit....also have been having heartburn at times...How is your pain otherwise? I am doing well in that part to the point where it freaks me out as I thought there would be more belly pain...sleeping is the worst in that area.

I just went to target and bought a Magic Bullet. I thought I would get prepared for pureed food.

Have any of you ever taken liquid fish oil? My tabs are going to be to big as of the 23rd.

Anyak,

ewww just the sound of fish oil doesn't sound to pleasing, that is because i don't eat fish. but please tell me about it and what does it do?

Thanks for that info. I got some Gas-x today and just took some. Hopefully that will help along with walking outside and around the house. I still have pain at the port area, but it is managable and extremely sore. but hopefully the walking will help with the soreness as well.

Hi there,

I was banded on March 13th! I am having problems with pains in the chest. Do you know what that could come from?

Ok guys, this is my 4th day post-op and I am doing ok. Having a little trouble with some pain in the chest. So it scared me to death, i could hardly breathe. So I went to the emergency room and they ruled out blood clots, or even heart trouble. the dr. told me that I was probably effects from the surgery. well the pain and pressure is minimizing, but it is still there. Has anyone experienced this? I am taking Maloxx but this doesn't seem to help. When I take deep breaths it hurts a little. Not sure what I can do, because I don't know if this is just gas or air? PLEASE HELP!:lunch:
