    Did you have surgery recently?

    Yeah 3 weeks and 3 days ago

    Sounds kinda like you might have a little bug. Take your temp. If you spike a temp and definately if you have any discharge from your sites I would call your surgeons office before you go to the hospital. Sounds more like a bug to me rather then anything with the band. But I'm not a doctor so I can't really say. Keep an eye on it and try and drink plenty of fluids. If you can't swallow pills you can try some liquid tylenol or something.

    My incisions are all healed up except one has like a little bubble in it, could just be the way it scared...

    It doesn't sound like an emergency to me---I'd give my regular doc a call or, since it's the weekend, head to urgent care if I felt I really needed it.
