I was banded on 9/9 and decided to take 2 wks off. I am glad I did! I
had my hiatial hernia fixed also and my chest has been really tight.
Also cannot bend over and hard to get up from sitting down. I have to
focus on drinking all my protein shakes and water. Still tired, but
walking. I also have a tightness in my chest and gas. I talk Gas-x,
not much help. I sleep in the rcliner still. So I am not recovering
as fast as I had thought!
