I am getting about 45 to 50 ounces of Water but my thighs burn and they cramp up at night really bad, wakes me and I have to put on the heating pad. anyone else have this issue? if so HOW DO YOU MAKE IT GO AWAY????

Hi Roxy - you need to get this checked by a medical professional, you may have developed clotting of some sort from the operation or recovery period - there is nothing I have read in the last 12 months, that would indicate this is related to gastric band surgery......... good luck, karen

i have never heard of this problem with the lapband. sounds like Fluid retention. but that would show up in the whole leg and feet i would think. sounds strange. do you think it is a allergic reaction to medication? did you call your doctor. you may need to have a d-dimer test to check for dvt. DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS. i hope it turns out to be nothing. but sounds like maybe a clot. let us know......... hope you feel better.

OMG,Roxy, i know that feeling in your thighs,, i experienced it about one year ago when i lost about twenty kilos, unfortunately ive put that weight since back on and no longer experience the pain in my thighs,,,i dont know what causes it, maybe its just a reaction from our thighs cause they are loosing weight! its worth asking a doctor though, once i start losing the weight again and re experience it i will definetely seek medical advice,,,ill be interested to know what is causing ur pain though.......please let me know!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
