Had my surgery yesterday. I could not wake up, took about 5 hours to get those drugs out of me. I am really sore today and hopefully will feel better each day. The Dr. let me come home the same day. I have triwest insurance and my total payment is $25 bucks, feel lucky there. I also got the fills approved.

Actually, I have less coming out than going in, which might be causing the horrible gas pain. OUCH. I can hardly move without stabbing pain.

:wub::alien: Super happy I found you guys. I had my surgery on 9/10. I was and for the most part still am feeling great. I took one of my normal meds this morning that I always used to take before surgery. It did not like that my tummy was empty and it made me heave and throw up okay that is a lie since we don't seem to be able to throw-up at this point. As of today I am soooo hungry. Cream of Tomato soup and some icecream just is not cutting it. i need food damn it!!!!!!

Now for my real question. Is it normal for us to have the same that we put in our front end to come out the backend if you catch my drift?

Totally normal! it gets worse before it gets better just hang in there and try to add some Fiber supplements if you can.

I will have my surgery this Tuesday the 21st and I am so excited and nervous. I also have Triwest and will pay $25 and have my fills covered and its wonderful!! I think I am most nervous about the pain afterwards and the fills kinda make me nervous but, I am so ready to get this going and feeling better about myself.

I slept on my side the 2nd night after surgery (it helped the shoulder pain a lot to put pressure on it) but everyone is different. Hope you feel like yourself soon.

Hey guys. I'm glad I found this too. I was banded 9/10/10. I have been less sore as each new day comes. Today I'm having a mental breakdown it feels like. I'm so tired of watching my son and husband eat food. I know I have done the right thing by having surgery. I am just so depressed and down. I do take depression medication. My emotions are going haywire. I have to cook for my 3 year old and its killing me! Sigh, just venting guys. :thumbup:
