Just wondering if anyone else can give me feedback on doing both of these at the same time. I am having pain still in the center of my chest and wondering if its from the repair because I think most of the gas is gone now. When I signed the consent to have it repaired if he found one I didn't think twice because I was sure I didn't have one. It just seems a little close to where the band is placed though...

I had mine fixed when I was banded. The surgery was longer' date=' 3.5 hours, the recovery was a bit longer. I had some bruised lungs, even coughed up bloody mucus for a few days and it hurt to breathe. My reflux has returned due to my band tightening on its own, had 3.5cc in 11cc band, now completely unfilled while my esophagus and stomach recover.[/quote']

See mine was a little over an hr my mom said. And I had mine fixed as well. Wow how did ur lungs get bruised?

I suppose it could be just gas. I am still gassy at times' date=' lol. But no pain in shoulders anymore and gas comes and gos but the pain is pretty constant but not terrible...kinda like what it feels like when you eat something cold too fast[/quote']

Idk what to say but every question I ask ppl keep saying every body and every doctor is different. I would def call the doctor

I had my surgery Friday the 15th. Two days ago I started getting heartbearn. My chest still feels a little tight. I called the dr yesterday and he said to take my zantac and then lets see in another day. He may need to let some of the saline out, because he puts some in when he does the surgery. I'm now scared.
