I was banded 6/23/08 and usually about noon, I start getting SEARING pain around my port. Not the port incision, but the actual port. If I lay down for a few minutes, it goes away. But then, if I move just wrong! YOWSERS! It is getting better, it's just a slow process. Hope you get well soon!

Sorry to hear about your bowel back up Patunia. Triple Leaf Super Slimming Herbal Tea works better than any other laxative I've ever tried. Guaranteed to have a movement within 8 hours and once you start, you may go a couple of times within the same hour and then you're back to normal.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
