Hello all you October Bandsters. I was banded on Oct. 5th in Mexico, but Dr. Rumbaut. I have lost 10 lbs, but I am having lots of problems with gas. I have heard this is normal, I hope so. I seems that it is stuck in my stomach and won't move anywhere. Good luck to everyone!!!

You can get the bullet things at department stores like Kohls. Or they have a bunch of them on eBay. I don't have one yet, but that is what I have read on another chat board.

Pain in the shoulder is a referred pain. It is a result of the incision in the upper abdomen. Pain in the left arm during a heart attack is a result of the same process.

Congrats to all of the people newly " on the bandwagon". It is so great that you all check in and update us on your progress and experiences. Very valuable info for all of us who will be "with the band" soon. Ok, enough puns:)
Does anyone have a track of what state all of us Oct bandsters are from. I think it would be fun to maybe have a little local reunion some time down the road with the people who have gone through the same thing and live fairly close. Mabye a 1 yr reunion????
Also, Aza, good luck on the ride home. I too am not telling anyone except my hubby and one friend. I just don't want to have the discussion right now. It is hard to keep it to myself though. I have to tell a bunch of "white lies";)
