Hi,
I'm not sure if my situation is due to my band or just my body being weird. I was wondering what you guys thought.
So I have had my band for about 9 months now. When I was about 5 months in I got a fill that gave me adequate restriction. I was good with this fill for over a month when all of a sudden, I couldn't get anything down. Not even Water. I went to my surgeon and he took out 2 CCs. Since that time I have gradually added back the 2 CCs an have been doing great for the past 2 months. In the past 2 months this fill amount has been PERFECT for me! I have been really happy with my level of restriction and the weight I've been losing.
Now all of a sudden, about 4 days ago. I can't get anything down again. I can't even drink water with out it being very painful and me throwing it right back up. This has been going on for awhile and as you could imagine, I'm feeling quite hungry, but no matter what I try, apple sauce, yogurt, etc...it will not go down. I don't want to take any Fluid out of my band, because I've been so happy with it! But at this rate I'm fearing dehydration.
Is there anything that I can do to remedy this problem on my own and what do you think could be the problem? Why do I go so long being just fine and suddenly this happens?
