Hi, Yes i think you are right i will wait its not if i really need it i was just one of those things that i sometimes fancy now and then. Thanks very much for your reply. Gillian

Hi Restlessmonkey, I had my operation on the 9th June 09,I had a drink of diet coke today mind it was only a mouthfull and i was fine. not that i ever drink much of it but i was wondering it it would be a problem for my pouch. Gillian

Does anyone know the reason why you cant drink fizzy pop, i had a mouthfull of pop today and i was fine. Does it cause a problem with the band? Gillian:bored:

:blush:How do you know if you have a good restiction after your fill? I had a fill a couple of weeks ago and my thoat felt like it had something stuck in it all the time i went to the hospital for a e-ray to see if the band was okay, I told them about my throat and they said they think my band had kink in it. they emptied my band then filled it back up with 5 mill I still have something in the back of my throat and also a horrible tast in my mouth, do you think this will go away in few days. I was not told by my surgen that i had to have fluids yesterday and and i have been exersising today could this also have caursed the problem in my throat again?> any help would be good. Gillian

OMG It sounds terrible, is this caused by not chewing the food enough or is it the type of food. OMG. Gillian

HI All, I just wanted to tell you all I have been to see my surgen today for a x-ray, we found out that my band had a small kink in it, this is hopefully how i was having that horrible feeling in my throat. I have to give it until Monday and if the feeling hasnt gone by then i have to go back to my hospital for a de-fill.

I have had it for 2 weeks, I go back to the hospital on thursday to see my surgen hope he can do something. Gillian

I seem to have it all the time, the only time its not there is when i am eating or drinking something, its a horrible feeling. Gillian

Hi Thanks I will try the water its horrible feeling, I have it all day, the only time its not there is when i am having something to eat or drink but it comes back again in min from eating or drinking. GillIAN
