2 days post!

Surgery went really well apparently. I was told that i got a perfect band placement, which is a great relief :)

I had a fair bit of pain when i got out and had several pain reliefs and none of them worked so had to go morphine - although it didn't work straight away, about half an hour later the pain was getting less and less.

I'm home now, day 2 post op. Feeling a bit sore still around my incision sites, mostly when i start moving around, but moving around also stops that from hurting as much as well. The one thing that is getting to me the most is when i'm standing or sitting or moving around i have the feeling like i want to burp and i can't - it's actually very painful. When i'm laying down, or at least sitting on an angle i can get the air out of my gut, but when i'm sitting up straight, it hurts a lot. :( i'm hoping that goes away soon.

I haven't had any problems with getting down liquids at all, so my stomach musn't be swollen much. Did find that jelly felt a bit weird and i didn't even want to risk that just yet, even though it basically melts down to a liquid so i left that for now.

Cant think of anything else for the time being so i'll leave it here :)
