good luck to you ladies being banded tomorrow!!!!

Good Luck to you all! I had my surgery 08-04-09 and remember being exactly where you guys are now."FREAKED OUT". I had to be there at 5A.M. I was sooooo nervous but had come too far to turn around. I had been wanting this for 2 years no matter how afraid I was. I am glad I went through with it. I have no regrets. I was a little stiff the first couple of days with very little pain. I only took tylenol a few times. You'll be fine and the susrgery will be a breeze

Cindy & CrazyChica - How are you guys feeling?

I slept most of the day yesterday (I was outpatient, came home in a few hours). Woke up today, my belly is pretty sore, but I just took more liquid vicodin & am hoping it kicks in quickly. I am a wuss about pain!

It hurts when I cough!

But it's all good.

Hope you all recovery quickly

Hey i've actually been pretty good! less and less sore each day which is great and i'm just getting itchy where the bandage is!!! i'm too nervous to take the cotton ball out since I had the SILS in my belly button. I'm so happy i didn't have 5 incisions because I think I would be a lot more sore if it weren't for the single incision. But overall good, just some back pains from sleeping on my back:cursing: and that hurts more than the soreness from the surgery! How are u guys feeling today?

Hey, I am glad to hear that you are doing so well. Unfortunately I am not doing so well. I have developed the flu on top of all of the pain from the surgery. Coughing is the worst part. I ended up having to stay an extra day in the hospital because I was running such a high fever and my heart rate was almost doubled. It seems like every little move I make just hurts so bad. I think if i weren't for having the flu, I probably would be doing better. I did have 5 incisions, the one in my belly botton and the one where my port are hurt the worst. Is anyone else having a hard time getting a lot of fluids in? I am sipping away, but just not getting too much in.
