  1. I need some support from anyone who has had their surgery and suffers from severe anxiety and lots of throwing up. I had my surgery in May 2007 and for the first six months had no problems. Then I started throwing up all the time due to anxiety. I had this condition prior to surgery but think it worsened due to the not being able to eat anything and everything all the time. I went on a spending spree for a while to take away the void from not being able to eat. I have been in the hospital four times for dehydration due to so much throwing up. When I get nervous about anything my band tightens up and I can't eat anything or if I do it gets stuck and I start throwing up and I don't throw up just once I throw up 10 times. The doctors have tried everything. I hope the last resort is not taking the band out because I have lost the weight but mostly due to throwing up!!! Is there anyone who suffers from the same symptoms? Please advise.
