I had to be on antibiotics which has been hard on my tummy with no food so maybe thaTS part of the prob along with dirinking to fast

But besides feeling as though I am healing great I got very nauseaus and woozy this morning so off to the ER as doc's orders

all test came back ok but now I am afraid to drink anything

How fast should I be sipping?:car:

PS He said I was probably swollen and swollowing air I do feel bloated

I have been gagging a little almost every day luckily it is only once or twice every couple days. I have also been coughing which scares me also, so I understand where you are coming from. I think I have also been swallowing air because I have constant gas..burp feeling and even my lower stomach feels bloated..Hope we feel better soon!

I too was banded 7/17 - My 1st couple of days were painful - the 2nd day the gas pains in my right shoulder had me crying. Once I came home from the hopsital on Thursday I have been able to eat small quainties 1/2 to 3/4 of a cop of Soup - I can drink but i don't gulp and just take regular swallows.

The coughing is most likely your bodys way of clearing your lungs after surgery..

I still have a little gas at night but it's pretty much gone.

There is a Lucky #7 Seven Thread - where all the people who were banded in July talk - go ck it out - you will find alot of info.
