Be Honest....
id never do it but think its so stupid what some people have to pay for a fill,i think after all the money some pay for lap band the first year should be free foir fills,it really cant cost that much for the stuff in the filljust like i had to pay 400 for classes after lap band i feel should have been my choice,i never went to any of the classes so feel i got that money stolen,in a way.if i didnt pay i couldnt get the lap band

I can't keep anything down..I'm freaking out.
i had same problem for a few weeks,my lap band nurse lives in my sub,anyway i saw her when i was walking she told me to do clear liquids 3 days,then 3 days mushies then food,and it worked 3rd day i was fine,and now i can eat ,saved me a trip.maybe yours is worse but i was throwing up and stuff,she told me she know people whove had fills for mo nths and then this starts to happen and usually it worksd what she told me to do,in my case it did.she said if u get to the mushie stage and still throwing up then see dr,
