Did he put you on antibiotics? I would rather play it safe and go to the hospital he is affiliated with. Something doesn't sound right to me.

I also had that done & was hoping hear some replys! I was banded 2/17 and was pretty excited about the one incision. Although 2 days ago I wasn't sure if it was worth that pain of 1 big vs 6 little :frown: But each day gets better. My strips are still intact and I'm curious to see that it looks like when they fall off. I'm sure others have had this done, but just haven't had time to reply yet :sad:

Dr. Geiss has seminars every month in Syosett. Call his office and ask them for the info. His staff is awesome :redface:

What your feeling is gas pains. Eating the wrong things isn't helping. It also happens if you drink to fast. Check this site for gas pains. Alot of people using Gas-X Strips :thumbup:
