He there... I take a liquid Vitamin that has tons of great stuff in it, during this first month...since our eating is so eratic..but my Dr's office said to just take kids chewable vitamins...one a day is all you need to get what you need for vitamins...DO NOT take any pills... I had to have all my pills downsized or turned to liquids...they can block your band area. Especially after you start to get fills... good luck@!

Hi there.. .I was banded on the 26th of Oct...and I have that same pain...and I notice it when I eat...it is what I use to tell me that I ate enough...as that is the only time I notice it. It is in like right under my shoulder blade area. Not gas pains...I never did get any of them from the surgery...where they pump you up...just this ache after I eat...like foods and not just liquids.... I will have my first fill on the 21...next week....hang in there...as I think we all "feel" things...and start to "wonder"...that is why I like this laptalk site so well...see what others are expierencing... good luck
