Had my band placed on Monday the 30th. The day after was probably the worst due to gas pain, but I'm feeling more or less normal today. I am still on clear liquids until day 7. I still get cramps in my stomach and also have some pain in my left shoulder, how long does that part last?!?

First, congratulations! You should start feeling better by the week-end. Try to go for little walks, I know it helped for me. I was re-banded on May 15 and it takes a while until you really feel normal. Hope this helps, good luck.

May I ask why you were re-banded? Were there complications?
