Does anyones band feel uncomfortable during certain times of the day like morning and night. I have pain in my back and it really uncomfortable. One problem I dont know if it would be my band or my spine. I cant tell. I have arthitis in some of my spine so thats why I could have back pain there too. but it feels pretty deep in the tissues but maybe thats just muscle. If it were my band wouldnt it be in my chest also?? I have heard of Arthitis hurting only during cold times. Pls lemme know need input. I hope there is no band slippage or anything.

Hi Gummie,

I'm sorry that you are hurting so much. And arthritis in cold weather is never any fun. You know that your doctor is the person you need to check with when there is pain. But until you do. I wonder if you still have your gallbladder? If this pain comes a little while after eating, that might be an area to explore. Many folk who are losing weight, sometimes have issues with gallstones. Here is a link to a previous discussion about gallbladder problems that you can look over. If you want to know more, just enter "gallbladder" into the Search box at the top of the page and you will get lots and lots of postings.

Good luck,

Jo Ann

Well, if you're recently banded it could still be gas, I has shoulder gas for a long time, off and on for months. Now I get back pain, between the shoulder blades after I'm in bed for a while, I'm sure it's not gas, but related to the band for sure.

Its right along my spine so thats why I am confused if its my stomach or my spine... lame I cant tell I know =/
