On Tuesday I was filled and by Wednesday I couldn't keep Water down. By today, Saturday, it's worse. I'm sipping water but am so thirsty I wind up gulping and it get stuck. Dr was supposed to call hours ago. Any advice would be appreciated

Thanks going tom, probably going to let them take some out. Too bad even though it's a pain I love this much restriction.

Hi, I had a fill last week and am really restricted. REALLY RESTRICTED. A day or so after the fill, I started coughing and gurgling at night in my sleep. What could this be? Am I overfilled? Thankx

Hi All, I had a fill last week and have been feeling progressively stuck. I barely keep water down. I have been coughing a weird cough at night and have occasional back pain. Do you think my band is too tight? I started happening a day or two after my last fill. Thanks for your input

Next week I'm off mushies. I was thinking of going on the Jenny Craig diet. In the past I lost weight very slowly on that diet. Since I'm still losing slowly now, I'm thinking how could it hurt. Any thoughts or experiences to share? Thanks

I recently pulled my back and vicodin is the only medication that seems to help. Do you think taking one dose at night will hurt my band?

I too have pains that come and go around the port site. I was worried about infection. Don't know. The incision feels hard and then right underneath it is the port and sometimes I get sharp pains and then sometimes I dont. UGHH!

Hi all, I was banded 2/27. I have been having some shooting pain around my port site and right above it. I went to the doctor today and he sent me for bloodwork to rule out infection. I have no fever and the pain comes and goes. Is it possible to have an infection? What will they do for it? Thanks

Anyone else have this? I have a pain on my left side, below the port incision. It's pretty constant. Is it soreness from the port site? I'm two weeks p/o Thanks

How long have you had pain at the port site? Is it normal? Does it take longer to heal? Thanks for any comments

I would love to hear some great stories from people who've had their bands for a long time. I'd like to get an idea of what the future may hold for me,. Thanks in advance for sharing

thanks all

Hi, I was banded 2/27/08 and feel much better (two weeks later). I have some pain at the port site incision and a little below it. Is this normal?

Thanks everyone. The nutritionist told me I'm not eating enough, so we'll see. Let's all hang in th ere

Banded five days ago and am still hungry? Could I need an ajdustment already or does this pass? I've only been taking in about a cup and a half of mushie food per day. Will I feel better after I move on to more solid food? I also asked doctor about adjustment. He said everyone is different. Can't give me a time when I'll need my first adjustment. I was banded 2/27. Thanx all
