Thank you very much, Monica. I am gonna get some gas-x and I don't know why I didnt think of a heating pad. I sure appreciate how you all just jump right in to help others!

I was banded on May 20th and I am up to walking just over a mile a day...I too have fibromyalgia and have to watch what I do! Today, I have had really bad pain in the port area....I hope I am not overdoing it. Congrats on e1 for taking the banding step and keep up the good work exercising...together, we can all make a different in our lives...

Thank you for the Gas-X help! I am walking at least a mile a day, plus the usual jobs as a mom! Where I assume my port is-is so sore that I can hardly touch it! I will get hubby to bring home the GAS-X!!! lol! I remember be excited about him bringing home the bacon, now I have moved to a new high---gas-x! Thank you again!

I am on day 8 post-op and I am having problems with bloating to the point that the area between my breast and my belly button is enlarged. I am miserable. I have only had 1 BM, I had to use a dolcolax supp. then...is this normal? Has anyone else went through this? How long does it last? I have am on a soft liquid diet, which includes yogurt and such consistency. Thank you for your help!

I have my surgery on May 20...I guess I am a Bandito too...lol!!! I am real excited, but kinda scared at the same time...but I know I have to do it!
