day 4 post op NSV !!

This morning I woke with a tiny bit of annoying shoulder pain but only because I slept wrong. Today I am able to lay on my side and my tummy without any gas pain at all!! I coughed this morning and it wasn't very bad and I'm able to laugh without a pillow over my stomach/port area. I am walking faster and feel great! These may seem little but they are HUGE to me. :-)

Everyday it gets better. Keep taking it easy and good luck on your journey.

That's great!! Good luck to you - it does get better each day. I was able to pull my jeans down yesterday without unbuttoning or unzipping!! Such a great feeling!!

Wonderful to hear that you are feel and doing so well.

Today is day 4 for me too!! I am feeling the same also. I didn't see any info about you or your journey so far. Since we're pretty much on the same timeline i'd really like to follow your story.

Best of luck!!

Hi all- Im still pre-op but wondering why the shoulder pain and shortness of breath?

Love the NSVs! New belt for me last night - ran out of notches. Integrity of the pants was in danger!

The shoulder pain is from the gas they pump into your stomach to help place the band and the shortness of breath is just getting used to breathing with the pressure of the band
