post op headaches

I had the band put in 12 months ago and although I have los 65 pounds. I have had problems since the very beginning it seems that everything I eat comes back up only liquids stay down and sometimes if I'm stressed no even that. Does anyone else have this problem. My metabolisim has slowed down and now I have capped and don't seem to be losing anymore. Help:confused:

How much of a fill do you have in your band? Sounds like you are overfilled and need to take some fluid out of the band. A good fill will allow you to eat food. Not being able to eat is a good indication you are needing a unfill.

If you are that restricted and do not have any fill in your band I would recommend a few days of malox and liquids to give you band some time to calm down. Sounds like you could be swollen.

Agreed. You definitely need an unfill...even a small one may help a lot. You need to be able to eat solids. Call your doc and tell them exactly what's going on. Good luck -BG
