  1. Hi. I've had a lap band for just over a year now, and I have lost all the weight I wanted to lose, and 5 pounds more than that. Yay! As you obviously know, it can be a "bumpy" ride. I had a few episodes where I had prolonged vomiting like you are describing as well. My Dr. told me that it most likely happened because something became stuck, and after it passed through, I would be fine. Twice, I did nothing and it eventually passed through on it's own. However, you've gone far too long without fluids to keep up with that. Twice also, I had to have the Water removed from the band, and I would slowly sip the water until whatever it was had moved through. Then I would have only liquids for another 24 hours or so and I came out fine on the other end. Hopefully the same would be true for you. Definitely talk to your doc! Jen
