Just Got Banded 8 Hours Ago

My nurses were wonderful. My doctor wasnt exactly Mr softy but I'm not paying him to be nice... He seemed very knowledgable. Surprisingly, I'm doing fine. When I first got woken up I felt a lot of pressure in my tummy but no pain. The pain was in my back and still is!! I have really bad back problems, so I think laying flat on my back kinda messed me up. I'm not hungry at all like I was going in. I've been trying to walk a little... My gas isn't too bad. Sometimes I will get a rush of gas in between my breasts, but it goes away after walking and rubbing it. I will keep you all updates on my progress. Anyone have questions?

I'm glad you're doing well. Have someone give you a shoulder and back rub. It helps me and yes minor pain when I breathe too. It's normal.

How long will it take for me to sleep on my side? My back kills me in the morning when I sleep flat on my back and there's no way I can sleep on my side. It hurts and pulls.
