Hi all, I am going to be banded on Monday but I'm worried about the intensity of the post-operative pain. i understand that there will be a few types of pain associated with the surgery (shoulder pain, port site pain, gas pain) but I am wondering if there is anyone who has had other types of surgery to compare the pain of banding to. How well did the percocet (or whatever other type of pain killer) work in controlling pain at home? Do you sleep a lot at home? For how many days? Is it easy to get up and walk around? Thanks for easing a concerned patient's mind!
