    Hi JoJo,

    Congratulations on being "banded". I know what you mean about the soreness. I still don't feel 100% back to normal, but it gets better every day. This week I have far less aches and pains.

    Get as much rest as you can and just remember you are still healing and deserve to "baby" yourself.

    Take Care,
