I was banded last Tuesday and some complications with the band being tight. They released the saline and I was able to come home wednesday. I received a steriod shot on tuesday and on Friday. Today I am starting to feel pain. Do you think it's because the striods are wearing off?

It could be. I was banded Tuesday also, the only pain is at the port site and for some reason the gas is worse today and it is painful. The gas makes my chest hurt, and I'm in a lot of pain form that. Don't know if that helped you at all. Good luck with your recovery.

Very well could be..did they give you any medicine to take if you needed it? If not and you are still in pain you should reach out to your doctor and see.
