When can I take my band off

Im 6 days p.o so I know not anytime soon… But I forgot what they told me I was out of it and was wondering people who got it done with netri how long do we keep it on.. I have a feeling 6 weeks? I really don’t want to for 6 weeks :'( haha

I had my surgery on 27 April with Mr Netri. Had band on 24/7 for 2 weeks and then nurse said nights only for a further 4 weeks x

I had mine on the 14th and got told 4 by the nurse but someone else said Dr netri said 2 weeks x

@daniblack what size band did you have? What back size are you? Xx

2 weeks 4 me x

@clairem-x · no idea I just woke up with the band on me! Im measured at 34 I think

Oh okay. I’m with a different company so been told to buy one. I’m basically a 33 lol so I ordered a 34 x

I was told to keep mine on for 6 weeks! I’ll be 5 weeks Monday and I’m really used to it being there now x

I’ve got 4 more days and I’m free! Making that 3 weeks in total thank goodness.

I’m one week post op and I’m having to take the band off for a few hours a day as I literally can not tolerate it. What isit for? I go back to work Friday and it won’t fit under my uniform

I’m only 3 days post op and I’ve been taking mine on and off for a few hours at a time, literally only feel like I can get half a lung of breath at a time! I was told I have to wear mine for 2 weeks, does anyone know what they’re used for?! X

I was told by Dr Netri it’s used to help the implants sit more naturally faster!
