You look Amazing!!!

I had a fill today also... I had to have a complete unfill at my last appt due to being way to tight at 5.5 cc... Today she put 5cc back In and had me drink Water .. My throat started gurgling really bad and felt the pressure if that water just sitting there.. Dr said 5.5 was to much so she took out .5 cc's before I left an it seems to be perfect .. So now I have 4.5cc's in my band ... Def go and get some taken out.. Dr said if its happening now it won't get better later.

Sorry for all the spelling errors.. I'm on my phone and once I get below a certain point I can't see what I'm writing.

Office and they actually did an un fill and said that I was to tight.. They took all if the Fluid out to make sure that that was what was causing my pain and I get a refill on Tuesday or they said I could wait until after thanksgiving... I did have instant relief as soon as they took the Fluid out. I don't think it was something stuck because I have had that happen twice before and it washer in my chest area.. This was below my chest . And it was a constant pain. It's rough bc I really thought I was in my green zo zone. I wasn't hungry betweeneals and had lost 10 lbs in 2 weeks. I did only have 5.5 cvs in my band too.

I went to a naval hospital and they have no clue about the lapband.. They took X-rays to make sure it didn't slip but that's about it.. They didn't even say oo you could be to tight... They just said maybe you ate to much... Dumb.. So I did call the surgeon and they actually totally un filled me as a precautionary that that was actually causing my pain.. They said I could get a refill on Tuesday or wait until after Thanksgiving. I did have instant relief from the un fill

No i didn't get stuck at all...and it did start about an hour after I ate

I'm on my way for an un fill as well.. Started getting a sharp constant pain in my sternum.. So bad I had to go to ER and they gave me some morphine... I also can't stop throwing up.. Surgeons office called me back and I'm on my way for an un fill... Praying that that will take the pain away

On my way to his office now... This pain is horrible !!!

It started last night around 7:30pm ... I am having severe pain in between my ribs right in the center. So much so I had toile a trip to the ER.. They did test and X-rays to see if it was a slippage or something and everything came back fine.. I got a hold of my surgeon today and he suggested I get an in fill that I may be to tight. My last my first fill was over 2 weeks ago... Can it get too tight this far out from the fill? And sorry for typos I'm ont phone

I had this sharp pain under my ribs on the right side and it would get worse when I would move or take a deep breath... And the pain would radiate up to my neck on the right side.

I just had lapband surgery 9/24 and last week had a gall bladder attack.. Was in ER then ICU for 3 days.. Horrible.. I wish they would of taken mine out!

I have a 10cc in me

I'm a newbie but what does PB mean exactly ?

Ya I'm going to go tomorrow to get some unflavored protein.. That way I can mix it in with applesauce or something and get more Protein in.

So I am almost 3 weeks post op and I am struggling with getting my Protein in. I'm allowed to progress to mushies but the thought of eating makes me sick.. I've tried mushies and can eat them I just don't want to.. I have no appetite what so ever. For protein i try to get at least one shake in and I try to drink a lot of Water. Is this normal?

Thanks ladies... Called surgeon and they said it didn't sound lap band related . I got worse so I went to ER and im still here. They are doing lots of tests .. They thought it was my gallbladder but ultra sound said it was fine. They did see something on My liver though and just had a ct scan. Prayers are def appreciated!

I had Lao band surgery 9/24... This morning I woke up with my neck being stiff... It has progressed into horrible pain on the right side of my neck/shoulder... It hurts to take a deep breath... I also have the chills and feel very nauseous and tired. Feels kinda of like the flu but just wante to make sure it's not something to do with the band

Thanks

I was banded 9/24... I'm extremly itchy as well!!! I have staples though and I'm getting a weird red rash thing and doctor thinks I'm allergic to the staples... But I do get them out tomorrow .. I had the glue for my c-section and it was itchy but I so would prefer the glue over staples any day.

I wish they would of given me the glue.. Had it for my c section and prefer it. Also, this may sound odd but every night when I lay down I get this sharp pain on my lower left side of the stomach.. So much that I need to take my pain meds the doctor gave me... Which I don't like taking.. And I'm fine during the day.. It's just laying in bed when I have the pains.. Do you guys know what this could be ?

I have 5 incisions with staples... I am pretty bruised up but the biggest incision has a big red rash type thing underneath and around it.. And it is very very itchy. Doesn't hurt just itchy and I don't have a fever at all and no oozing So I don't think it's an infection.. Has anyone else had this? I go to get my staples out And my first post op appt on Tuesday and will def have the DR look at it.. Just wondering If I should be worried

Thanks! I had surgery yesterday at 0715 and was released at 1400. I am sore and didn't have any gas pains except for today and man they are rough.. Not hungry at all and can take my liquids well

I had to have documentation of attempted weight loss.. Weight recorded.. And blood pressure recorded with my pcm.. he also wrote tricare a letter..I started the process in May and got banded yesterday. Approval once submitted only took 3 days but the letter going to my surgeon took a little over a week. Good luck with everything

I know what you mean! I have torrid dress pants that are a size 24 and I would have to suck in to get them buttoned but with Style and Co brand I'm a 20 and there a little big.. Go figure

I am getting banded first thing tomorrow as well! Good luck and prayers your way!!
