Hi all,

I was banded on Nov 8th. I'm wondering if what Im experiencing is "normal". My steri strips are still on. My surgery center nurses told me to let them fall off on their own. But I'm having sharp shooting pain where my incisions are and pain where the port is still. Everything else is fine.

Thanks!

Kate

You will have some pain as the port settles in. I had that same thing and that was what I was told. You are still very early in your surgical process. The steristrips will fall off. You are just 2?weeks out so expect that you will have some aches and pains. Welcome to the other side.
