Danielle, it is good to vent once in awhile! I am 2 weeks out and I notice that my restriction is getting less and less. My first fill is not until November 2, so I am with you trying to make it until then. Stay strong and keep exercising. We will make it!
I was banded on 9/21 and I had the same annoying neck pain. I walked everyday, took Gas-X, and still the pain. I got fed up because I had no incision pain, only the neck pain. But on the morning of day 10 when I woke up, it suddenly was almost gone. I wish I had a better answer why it left but hang in there!!
