Need an unfill

Ugh! I am in pain. I had an unfill two days ago and they took out .4 but now I wish they took out more. I cannot even drink water right now and have so much acid.

 

With this last fill I did notice that I wasn't able to eat much solid food. I was having a lot of chili and soup, which they say is bad. But anything else would come right back up and I would be stuck for hours and not even be able to drink water. Well last week I got stuck and that seemed to push me over the edge and must have gotten super swollen. I wasn't even able to drink water for two days. I got the unfill and was in heaven drinking as much water as I wanted that night. I had broth and was so happy.

 

The next morning I made my protein shake since I wasn't able to for a few days and on the first sip I was in super pain. I waited and it seemed to go down but it hurt. I took another sip and that was all I could take. I was throwing it up all morning. I was able to get some warm soup down but that night I tried soup again and it all came right back up. since then nothing has stayed down.

 

My head hurts and I have so much acid it is not even funny. I cannot take any medicine or it will come back up. Today is Sunday so I can either go to the emergency room or wait until tomorrow. I think I will wait but I really don't want to take more time off from work. I was hoping on Friday that they would have done the unfill under floroscopy so that they could see if something was wrong, but he didn't. And since I was able to drink the water in their office they thought they were good only taking out .4cc.

 

I am worried that something is wrong. I think I am going to ask them to take a lot out this time so that I can heal.
