  2. Okay so it's been a little more than 3 years since I had the surgery done. Lost 115 lbs. Gained 15 back to be honest. Never had a fill because I never followed doctors orders to the tee. I know very stupid but hey, i still lost weight and I'm still alive. Go me. However, I have had my band plugged up for 2 full days. Nothing will go down guys. It just sits there and wont pass and it's very uncomfortable. I've had food stuck before but usually managed to push it through with meat or chips or just plain vomiting but right now I am completely clueless. I tried a few swigs of mineral oil to loosen it up and no luck. Does anyone have any advice? I dont have insurance anymore and really cant afford an ER visit. *fingers crossed*
