Hello everyone!! I'm back and banded! had a wonderful trip to Mexico had a wonderful time at the hospital everyone was super nice and took care of me very well.

Aside from shoulder pain I am doing very well. I was expecting much worse but Praise God I am not having nausea, abdominal pain or anything else. I do have mild port pain only when i cough or laugh.

Thanks for all the prayers and well wishes :)

congrats! It should be smooth sailing from here! May I ask, will you be getting your fills in Mexico? I am in Los Angeles County and am interested in a different fill doctor. Someone else suggested Mexico, but I am unfamiliar with traveling in and out of TJ for medical needs. I really want a doctor who does that fluoroscopy with the fill to make sure it's the correct amount. However I'd like to do it for a reasonable price. Was wondering if you share the contact information for your doctor in Mexico?

I wish you all the best!

Welcome back, Zeniada!! I wondered how you were doing! I'm glad you came through your surgery ok. I hope the gas pain subsides quickly but I have heard that shoulder pain can last for a while. I wonder why the shoulder is where it ends up hurting?

I can't wait to read about all your success!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
