Hi all,

I'm new here and was banded on Monday. I've been resting all week, but I'm about to go back to work. I still get run down pretty quickly. Any suggestions or tips? Thanks!!!

It was 2 weeks before I felt normal. I was banded on a Thursday and thought I would go back on Monday...but that didnt happen. I went back for 1/2 days on Tuesday and Wednesday then full days after that. Best I can tell you is rest when you can. Hopefully you can have help with Laundry and Housework... but if not it will be there when you feel better.

Best of luck to you.

I was banded on 10/24 and was planning on going back to work today, however I just informed my boss that I needed an extra day, so I will be back to work on Monday. I've been able to work from home a few days since my surgery, but physically commuting on the train for 1 1/2 hours still feels challenging to me. Besides, for some reason I am still having gas issues that really hurt and whenever I eat a meal, I immediately feel exhausted afterward. So, I have today and the weekend to get things together for returning to work on Monday. I hope you feel better as well.
