Coughing

I had my lapband surgery this past friday and  since out of surgery, I cant stop coughing...Is this normal? I dont have a fever or anything

Hi Dina,

Congratulations on your surgery. I haven't heard of this before, but I would encourage you to call your Dr's office. When you have questions like this and don't get enough responses here, you might also try cross posting to the main, lapband and realize band forums... sometimes you'll get more input when casting a wider net. 

I hope your coughing resolves soon.

Welcome to the Loser's Bench!

I coughed alot also. I found it helped to keep using the incentive spirometer like 10 puffs every hour. This will help the cough subside and ward off any pneumonia and/or fever. It really works. I hope you brought yours home.
