Ok--reading these really helps. Am I the last one not to have a BM? "Tooting" but nothing else. Thank God, I am not hungry (two protein drinks a day, two cups of soup, 64 oz water) but am still on 15 mg of liquid vicoden every 6-8 hours. The pain is to the left of my belly button--is this the port site? It hurts pretty bad when I move funny. My doc is on vacation for another week so I can't ask him. Sally

Help! I have never done a chat room before so hope someone will talk back. My lapband was done on Monday on an out patient basis in Redwood City, CA. I still have a lot of pain at my waistline incission by belly button. It particularly hurts to reach or roll over. I still am taking 15cc of liguid vicodan every 6 hours, and I thought I was tough! No problem with the liquid foods--no nausua etc. I have a hard lump (size of egg) at waist to left of belly button (from my point of view) and also have not had a bm. I realize that all that has gone in is liquid, but shouldn't someting come out? Is this TMI? Does this format have spell check. Thank you--anyone who answers. Sally
