hi all i was banded on Aug 29th. All is well so far. Some pain but once you realize what needs to be done and do it, it gets easier. I just found this site this morning and it is great very informative. It is easier to have somewhere to find answers to some the questions you have than getting in contact with doctor. Since I am a newbie to all of this when you feel something out of the ordinary you can look here and see if anyone else has experenced the samething or not.

Welcome kathyq. You certainly can find the answers to very minor things on here....but since things vary quite a bit from person to person (and even instructions from doctor to doctor), your doc is the ultimate resource. Good luck on your journey!

Welcome! I was banded on Aug 28th and feel really great. I had minimal gas pain and no incision pain. I have read so many post here on how much pain people went thru. I was lucky I guess and I am so excited for the future. Best of luck to you
