  1. POST SURGERY + 5Years

    LdianeH posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    Hello everyone. I'm hoping someone can provide an answer. My girlfriend has had lap band surgery. Today, she has had a problem and I'm worried about her. She ate 2 pieces of lumpia and a half bag of kettle corn today, and now her stomach feels like it's going to explode, and when she attempts to eradicate her body of the food, only water is coming out. She told me a problem could be in regards to 'blockage of the band'. Is that possible? What are the symptoms of blockage of the band? I'm really worried. She doesn't want to go to the emergency room, yet, but that may be coming pretty soon here. She has been feeling this pain for about 3 hours, after eating the lumpia and popcorn. Please advise as to what the problem could be, or call me at (619) 253-3489 I'm just really worried. Thank-you. Respectfully, Allyene
