I am 4 days post off and want to lay in my bed so bad!! When were you able to lay in bed And on your side?

Hi Everyone, I was so relieved to find this tread I was beginning to think there was something wrong... I was banded on the 27th of September 2010 and I have to say its been an eye opener...!

I have been sleeping on my back since the operation and just as I started to get over the swelling, gas and generally feeling tired from the anaesthetic my back has now gone into spasm's. Don't get me wrong I am still determined and happy that I have gone through with the band but you do feel very isolated and frightened and reading everyone else’s experiences really helps. Now I know that within a week I will feel much better, there is a light at the end of the tunnel, thanks everyone..x

I slept in a sitting up position in bed w/alot of pillows. I didn't start laying on my said for almost 10 days. I just was paranoid about hurting anything. I am normally a stomach sleeper, but have not done that for the same reason.
