  1. I have my first fill tomorrow and I am so very nervous. I do pretty good with needles except for IV's when they have to peck around to find it and that is what I am worried about with the fill. I have lost 52 lbs from before surgery to now 7 weeks....The last 3 weeks the losing has really slowed down but I am not having any restriction either. Anyway just needing to vent. There are some many post from people who say they want to fly off the table in pain to those who say it was nothing....Nerves Nerves Nerves!
  2. Thank you for replying. I have been feeling a bit stressed!
  3. I was Banded on 4/20/09. I am a week out. I definitely had a harder time then I thought I would. I think I am having pain where my port is....I don't know. It is right above the larger incision. I never saw my Dr before surgery and after he talked to my husband for just a couple minutes but didn't tell him anything other then things went well. So I am feeling a bit lost as to where things are and why it huts so much. I called to talk to the Dr on call but he said he couldn't tell me anything to call my surgeon tomorrow. Weight wise I am doing great I have lost almost 40lbs in the last month and a half between the liquid diet and being on clear liquids now. So that is good. I am not used to not being busy and this has really slowed me down.
  4. I also had surgery on the 20th and I still feel bad. I had a bad pain on my right side just a little above my bigger incision. I can feel a lump there and I am wondering if that is where my port is....I can't stand up straight either because I feel like I get shooting pains there....I haven't done too much I am following my liquid diet and I have started wondering if I have made a huge mistake...even though I researched this completely. My incision looks fine so I know it is something inside.
