Just wondering if anyone had an answer to this... I am able to eat and drink a bandster portion. I am losing weight again, but I am having reflux. I am not too tight cause I can eat BBQ Pork chops and they go down fine. I have not had problems eating, but I was having reflux. I have woke up several times in the night choking on my spit. Yesterday morning I woke up with a temp of 101.4 and feeling horrible..hurt to take a deep breathe...and then this morning woke up again with a temp. Went to my primary doctor and I had Fluid in my lungs...aspiration pneumonia. They gave me 2 shots for that, one an antibiotic. So, then I went to my band doctor and explained to him what was going on and he took .2 out of my band leaving 1.2cc's. So can anyone explain why I was having reflux, but I was not too tight? Thanks in advance!!

My doc doesn't thinks I have the perfect level of restriction at 1.3. Does he think you are too tight or what??? Sunday afternoon the last thing I drank was at 5 pm; went to bed at 10pm and still work up choking....so I definetly waited long enough. I am doing alot better, still hurts when I take a deep breath and my PCP office called me today and told me if I am not feeling better to go in on Friday and get another antiobiotic shot. After the unfill I have not had the reflux anymore. Thanks everyone for your concerns...and Anne, YES I TOTALLY AGREE...THIS IS NOT THE EASY WAY OUT!!!!!!!!!
-
Well, I found out today that he took .4 cc's out of me and left me with 1cc. So my doctor straight up lied to me............................not very happy!

My PCP did give me a prescription for the reflux, but with the unfill the reflux is now gone. Spiegel said that the little pouch does create the acid and that I was too tight and the acid could not go down, so it had to come back up... I also think that my stomach has shrank majorly....I had 1.8 before and now I can't handle 1.4....I ate lunch today and did not eat hardly anything and I am satisfied. I will not be getting another fill. I will diet and start walking since our new neighborhood has sidewalks down our street and is very peaceful and nice. Not that we lived in the hood before, but I am more comfortable where we are now. I have 17 lbs to go and I believe without a doubt I can do this!!

-
Well, If anyone has noticed, I have not been around lately!! We were actually moving! We are moved, I just have a few more boxes to unpack. I am glad to be back here, we have to run a phone line in the computer room for the internet, so I can only access the internet at work for right now....but I will be on at home soon! We owned our trailer and was just renting the space...so we bought a home and are moving the trailer to the lake...so we got a house and a camp all in one buy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
We are closing on the house tomorrow!!! It is a 3 bedroom 1 bath 1 garage brick home with a very nice yard. Dead end street....the street actually dead ends into the Neches River! It is very peaceful!! We can sit in our front yard and watch the ships go by! I actually cut the grass on Sunday...It did not need it cause the next door neighbor had cut it on Monday, but I was excited to do it.....We are the youngest couple on the street. One side of the neighbors is a retired couple and the other side, both are teachers. We love it!!! Now we just got to get the trailer moved before May 1st.. We have plenty of time....I am sooo excited!

13 Reasons to Smile Now that food has replaced sex in my life, I can't even get into my own pants. Marriage changes passion. Suddenly you're in bed with a relative. I saw a woman wearing a sweat shirt with "Guess" on it. So I said "Implants?" She hit me. How come we choose from just two people to run for president and 50 for Miss America? A good friend will come and bail you out of jail...but, a true friend will be sitting next to you saying, "Darn...that was fun!" I signed up for an exercise class and was told to wear loose-fitting clothing. If I HAD any loose-fitting clothing, I wouldn't have signed up in the first place! When I was young we used to go "skinny dipping," now I just "chunky dunk." Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell the difference. Wouldn't it be nice if whenever we messed up our life we could simply press 'Ctrl Alt Delete' and start all over? AMEN, AMEN !! Why is it that our children can't read a Bible in school, but they can in prison? Wouldn't you know it... Brain cells come and brain cells go, but FATcells live forever. Why do I have to swear on the Bible in court when the Ten Commandments cannot be displayed in a federal building? Bumper sticker of the year: "If you can read this, thank a teacher -and, since it's in English, thank a soldier !!"
