Good luck! We'll see you in bandland! Don't forget to let us know how things went!

Hi everyone, I was banded on 9/21 I am doing pretty good I do have alot of gas pains and diarrhea. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. Other than that I have lost 4 pounds since I have been home Yippee!!!! ( all that diarrhea) Well hope to hear from you all soon!

Supermama-I too was banded on 9/21. I have major port pain, and am having sharp pains in that area when I breathe. I go to the doc tomorrow at 11:15. I had the opposite problem from diarrhea and that wasn't fun either!

I planned on being back at work today, but won't be going until Thursday at the earliest.

I hope you are doing well.

Chocolatesnaps - I totally know your feelings. I hope that you had a great surgery and up walking walking walking to get those gas pains out! Update us as soon as you can with your progress!

Wow supermomof4 - I am sorry to hear that you aren't feeling that great. Gas pain is only gone by walking, I hated every minute of it, but the more I walked the better I felt. The diarrhea on the other hand, I have no solution for. Have you tried to call your drs office?

Time4me - please let us know how your dr appt went. I hope it all goes well. I too had the problems breathing and sharp pains. It was gas for me. Hopefully it will be the same for you. Good luck and let us know as soon as possible!

Hi Time4me I am sorry you are not feeling well. I hope the dr. has a solution for you. As for my diarrhea my dr instructed me to take Benefiber and it seems to have done the trick. yeahh!!! and my gas pain is finally gone too!! The dr. thinks my diarrhea was due to the antibiotics that were given in the hospital? Well I hope you are feeling better soon!!
