Woohoo...its done. At times I feel amazing and others, not so great. I am trying to figure out if my pain is related to band or hernia repair. My incisions are fine, left shoulder pain is extensive but comes and goes. Md related that to manipulating my diaphragm.

I feel so tight in my throat at times and though i am not prone to panic, i can see how one likes this to shortness of breath. I walk often with little discomfort, but im pouring sweat with activity....

I take gasx , walk, and use liquid morphine once or twice a day. Today, my gas is Awful but i can't pass any...is this normal?

I am loving my full liquid options but am so full so easy... crazy!!!!

I guess im just wondering if some of this is related to the hernia repair (didn't know i needed one) or from band?

others feel tight, gassy without relieve, easily exerted and no bowel movement in 6 days?????

I got gas pains if I drank my shake too fast. I used and still do use Gas X. I had a band/Hernia repair too.
