OK, I was banded on the 10-01-10 and have felt pretty great overall....except for one thing. The past 3 days I have had a terrible stitch in my left side! Not near any incision site, but in my ribs, like I've been running....only I havent been running. And sometimes there's 2, one about the middle of my ribs and the other lower. I can feel it if I breathe deep and when I'm walking around.

Just wondering if anyone else has had this and has any suggestions?:w00t:

I was banded on 10/7 and I felt the same way for 2 weeks. It's gone now, but my doc told me it probably was a stitch and occasionally people get them after surgery.

I had this..i havnt had this felling since running in gym in middle school!..lol..but its that same achy pain you get after you run...anyway, I had it for a few days after my 1st fill and had it again after my 2nd fill this week. its on my left side and seems far away from my port and band but the doctor said it could of been gas or just pain from the band that maybe felt like it was further over than it really was..who knows but it does go away and I didnt get concerned about it.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
