  • I would to know if anyone felt tried or short of breath going up stair 4 day post op after lap band surgery?

  • @TheSmoney5 Sorry it took me a while to get back to you. I think at day four it was still a little difficult to do anything physical. I remember it being difficult to traverse stairs days 1-3 but I was feeling a lot stronger after that. I think by day four, if you take it easy, you'll be okay. I would try running them or anything, haha.

  • they actually gave me regular pills and the tylox is kinda big. I was a bit worried about taking pills at first but they actually go down fine. the last meds I got at the hospital was a fairly large pill, again I was nervous but it went fine. I burp a lot (tmi?) but everything goes down fine without crushing or breaking in half, thank goodness!!

  • thanks guys for your sweet comments! I feel so lucky to be feeling so well this soon. Gas pains have dissipated and I am up and moving for the majority of the day! Very excited that I have officially begun my journey!!!

  • Great ideas for food and stuff! I'm thinking about getting lapband...

  • I'm 2 months behind you, so I'll be interested in reading what's ahead for me by way of your experiences.

  • did your doctor tell you to take ibuprofren (misspelled)? it can cause band erosion. you should not be taking it. if your doctor said it was ok, then fine. but i was advise to NEVER take iburprofen ever again. google it! walking helps with the gas. get up and walk for at least 5 minutes every hour or so. you look and sound great for day 2 post op. keep it going. take care.

  • Welcome home... and congratulations on getting banded! Are your meds liquid? or are you crushing pills? I am still trying to figure all of that out! and so weird, we had the EXACT same dinner that nigh! LOL

  • Looking good for Day 2. Congrats on your new beginning!

  • You look great! glad to see you are feeling good :)
