Ugh....I was so sick this past week also. I had some really bad stomach bug that was causing me to vomit violently and have diarrhea for 4 days. My appetite has finally came back, but my stomach just doesnt feel right. I cant seem to eat much of anything without feeling sick or wanting to vomit more. Tonight my hubby made homemade spaghetti and meat balls, I took 2 bites of spaghetti and 1 bite of a meatball and...I was staring into the toilet. I feel like my food is sitting in my chest and then I have trouble breathing. The only thing that seems to help is drinking water, but only a little sip...otherwise i get the same feeling all over again!! Did I hurt my band?? I finally got some oral phenergan and that seemed to help with the nausea. Im just concerned that I might have done some damage to my band or my esophagus.
