To everyone that reply to my other email...Thanks for the encouragement!

Well I am at day two and feel pretty good. I thought I would be in alot of pain but I am not. I have been walking around and trying to allow this extra air to move out. My doctor said everything went great and based on the xray my port was in a good place. I haven't been sick. I am having a hard time with the liquid thing. It is like I don't want liquids, but when I drink them it is not long before I feel weird. I think it is the sign of me being full. I haven't learned what is what yet. I just had about 4 spoon so tomato Soup and feel okay but full. I ask my doctor PA about Vitamins and protien drinks, she told me not to worried with that just try and get my liquids intake in. Overall I am okay. A little pain on the port side but good.

???--What type of vitamins are good after the band? What Protein drinks are good? How do you get your daily fuild intake in?

I am not familiar with that town.........I love flintstones too lol

Gallatin is abt 25-30 miles north of Nashville, and we are about 2hours from Chatt. whaere you live. We are thinking about going to aquarium soon. We really like it, your city it beautiful. I'm eating a popcycle and getting ready to go do 2 facials. LOL

Thanks, I live about 30 miles north of Chatt in Cleveland now. I lived in Chatt for many years I wish I still did oh well. Yes, the aquarium is really nice. I would avoid (unless you like crowds) coming down the week of June 13th because that is Riverbend which is right there at the Aquarium. (multitude of bands most of them way past their peak ha ha)
