Feel Things Inside

Can anyone else feel things moving inside? When I bend forward I can feel something moving around, tubing maybe?? Will it go away? I am nearly 3 weeks banded.

Oh thank goodness! I emailed my surgeon but no reply yet. It feels so weird. Freaks me out. Thankyou.

I can't agree more, it makes me twinge and make ugly faces, I hate it! I'm not sure if you had a hernia repair while he was in there too but my doc seems to think that once that heals we won't feel it as much. I'm not sure what that has to do with it but whatever.

I had that feeling but only the first week it was like an alien in there just moving around. Everytime I would move from side to side, mainly when trying to sleep. I've never been pregnant but I would say that might be what it feels like lol. Good luck to you

I never really felt anything moving around, but I feel my port ALL the time. It often gets in the way. And when I get a fill, I can feel the saline going through the tube and into the band. It's so weird.
