Re: [lapbandrapband] After surgery

My surgery was 2 years ago and they didn't do the barium swallow, nor did they tell me to put an ice pack on the port site.  The business about walking lots and rolling your arms in big circles from the shoulders was still on the "to do" list to dispel gas and anesthesia.
