  1. Thank you! My dr. Always says an unfill. Id rather try liquids and see if it calms down then have an unfill if I dont need it. I have been stuck at the same weight so I'm ready to find the sweet spot but I def don't want pain and vomiting.
  2. I have had 3 fills. I had 3cc put in the first time. I did great until 3 weeks later something started getting stuck and then it just caused me pain where I was throwing up. I had an unfill to 2cc I did fine. 3 weeks later I had .5cc put in. I did fine once in a while I would vomit a little if I got stuck. Then I had 1cc put in on wednesday last week so I'm currently at 3.5cc and was doing great! Finally felt full when eating and started losing a little. (I haven't really lost any weight since having a fill, been at a plateau) I felt like 3.5cc was going to be that sweet spot, but on Monday something started hurting caused me to throw up and yesterday same problem all day. I just took a bite today and can feel the same pain. Do you think I'm irritated and need liquids for a day? Or should I have an unfill immediately? Does anyone else have any similar situations? Or get tighter on your own for no reason? I'm frustrated :/
  3. Banded on 4-2-12 had my first fill 4weeks ago. All weekend I really can't eat anything without getting stuck or vomiting. I have had a few stuck episodes but nothing that has continued like this. I have felt restriction but now it seems nothing solid will digest. Could it be irritated and everything is painful right now? Or do I need an unfill? Any suggestions?
