What does it feel like when your band slips?
I've wondered too. I thought I read somewhere if you regurgitate then it might have slipped. But I would get checked by your dr

so do I, I'm praying he knows, I'd be so lost if he can't find any. School starts on the 8th and to be honest, I'm scared. Like if I get sick and end up missing school, it's starting to make me sad): BOO! =

it's hard to eat anything right now, I have no appetite, I try to eat some broth and yogurt but I couldn't eat much, I've been basically just been drinking water it seems to be the only thing that doesn't make me feel nauseated. I get up here and there

I know and I don't know why it just started happening I mean it's healing time but still I gotta be stuck at home nothing to do besides sleep/rest and watch tv hoping it'll go away. I was banded July 31st. I felt like myself for two weeks. My first week sucked! Was nauseated all week one time it got real bad I had to go to the ER. But it's so weird that I started feeling like crap again last Friday night really sucks. Thanks though (:

I see my dr and I can't wait!! Hopefully he finds out what's wrong. I hate when you have plans, you feel fine and up to it then at the last minute you have to cancel it. Had plans to go to the movies yesturday, planned for a month then I didn't feel I could make it, I feel horrible cause I couldn't get ahold of my friend ): then today I was going to go to Albany, woke up with nausea and I couldn't make it that far (about 3 hours away) I went shopping online, atleast I got the things I wanted, usually the store doesn't. Anyways it's been a week being sick I went from being 212 to 202 since last Saturday! I have a feeling once I start feeling better and eating mushies again it'll go back up ugh. It's scary that my Tongue is White like it was my first week post op, I can't remember how I got rid of it. The nausea I thought that if I took my nausea meds itll help me get back but they don't they helped me get back to normal before, so weird and I can't take them anymore cause apparently I'm alergic to them, DANG! Well I think there's something wrong hopefully we find out what it is. I wrote down how im feeling. As long as I'm home I can wait til my appointment on the 2nd itsthe only time I can get in so yeah! Okay I just wanted to talk

can having this make you nauseated?
thanks (: Someone suggested trying hot tea so I'm going to try that The journal idea I will do, I can't wait to see my dr, hopefully he knows what's wrong, someone else said it could be that my band is too tight (it had a fill in it at time of surgery)

can having this make you nauseated?
It could also be sinus for me too then I mean I never got nauseated from it before, it does make me nauseated now tho. I never felt so nauseated in my life before it's unreal. I was thinking if I get nauseated alot up to November break(for school, thanksgiving break) I'd get it removed cause I can't live like that. Maybe if I get this phlegm out I'll feel better after but if not idk whatelse to do, I'm gonna try some benedryl

How to get it out
What I mean is phlegm. I don't know if it was cause I was sick out not (had it since Saturday) I'm pretty sure it's phlegm, I can't get it out and it's annoying. Also, can it make you nauseated? Cause I feel a little nauseated

can having this make you nauseated?
can having phlem in your throat make you nauseated? i try to get it out but i cant, everytime i try i gag and then i swallow it back down, its so gross, i cant sit up for long without feeling nauseated and the feeling in my throat is there, is there an easy way to get it out? yet i think i feel nauseated cause phelm or whatever is in my throat is there.. i tried soups and it didnt work, oh and i have pain all over my stomach too well mainly where the band and port is and i cant see my dr till next wednesday. just wondering if that can make you sick to your stomach/nauseated? i have really great nausea meds too but apparently i cant take them anymore cause im alergic to them. oh and i was wandering what a slippage felt like out of curiosity.

Stomach soreness question
I've felt sore there too, bending over, laying down and even standing up for a few days now. What I found to make it feel better is a heating pad. (: I can lay on my side now and stand up without it being sore (:

Is there anything for itching
That you recommend asking my dr for? I'm realllly itchy and I can't stop itching. I think I might be alergic to the nausea meds or the glue they put on my incissions they itching got more itchy since two days ago and the itchies are only near my incissions and I have 5. The itchy-est ones are my chest, my two incissions on the right, the other two are fine. The itching is too hard not to. Anybody else have the itching problem? What did you use to relieve the itching? Thanks by the way
