Had Band Removed April 17Th Very Bloated

I had band removed less then a wk ago. My upper belly is SO BLOATED. Didn't move bowels for atleast 4-5 days after which is odd for me. finally started taking miralax and things got moving. I still feel so full and bloated though. I'm sure everything is still swollen ...has not even been a wk ....right??????

    Yeah it's normal. I had mine removed 2 1/2 weeks ago and just recently things are mellowing out. A lot happened during surgery... It's just inflammation.
