sex drive after lap band?

OK so i'm not sure exactly how to put this but here goes.....has anyone's sex drive gone up in the few weeks after surgery? Mine seemed to skyrocket about a week after surgery, and still doesn't seem to be slowing down...Wow didn't think that was possible, as I already have a high sex drive blink.gif

You know I think when your sex drive takes a plunge when your not happy with your self and now that your banded your sub consciously happier then you realize and its affecting your sex drive. I know mine sky rocketed as well

I am so glad y'all have posted this. I am not banded yet, but have wondered this. (trying hard not to embarrass myself) One, my husband will "hate" to hear that several peoples sex drive have increased. ha ha he says I am gonna kill him now with my current drive (in a good way). :o Anyhow, I have wondered if different positions cause too much pressure on the port and if it can cause problems.

I know me for one could do about any position, as long as neither him nor I was laying on my port incision, as I am now 1 and a half month from being banded, I have no problems at all, its almost like I have no band at all blink.gif other than the fact I am down about 35 lbs and cannot eat very much at all
