Anyone else getting banded in December? If so lets keep in touch until our day.

I have been suck to my stomach all day. Very nauseous and bad case of diarrhea. This is my post op day 5 and I'm still on liquids. I hope I am better tomorrow and there is nothing wrong with my band.

Congrats Lady Leigh, Glad u r doing well!

Thank you, Desoto!

I'm feeling better then I thought I would. Doc said I could have anything I want to eat that is liquid and fits through a straw. So far, so good! I appreciate your well wishes!!

So happy for you ladyLeigh! I was banded Friday and the gas is the only thing bothering me. Careful, I have always known that hot or cold gives more gas! Dr said room temp! Ask about that all Dr's are different! Happy for you!!!

Well tomorrow is my day. It took me working 18hrs at work (should have only had to work 12 these past two days), 2.5 hours at Walmart, and a trip to CVS but I think I'm ready. Going to bed soon at I have to be at the surgery center at 6am. Good luck to everyone else being banded tomorrow!

Its a breeze youll be fine

It's nearly 3am and I'm up … nearly 1 day post-op … feeling good! Gas up in the left shoulder/neck area … some soreness around my middle, but the girdle they wrapped around me is offering a lot of support. Walking around helps, a good burp never felt so good! LOL! I have been taking my pain meds and following all of doc's orders … walking around, doing that breathing thing, using my pillow to get out a good cough, and so far I have gotten down a half cup of Soup, Water, tea, about a half cup of Protein Shake, and a grape sugar-free popsicle. Yum!

Thank God all has gone well … I think once this gas pain is gone I will feel much, much better! How is everyone else doing??

Congrats to everyone getting banded today!!! I will be sending prayers your way! :wub:
