I Just had a fill yesterday to just below 7 c.c, after it I was able to have a can of creamof broc+cheese and a yogurt. Today I can drink but only a small amount at a time and sometimes I feel as though it wants to come back up. Why was I able to drink and eat yesterday and not today? Is it inflammation?, should I wait to call the Dr after a couple days?, will this stop? HELP!! Thanks:mellow:

Call your doctor!

It may be as simple as removing .2 ccs to get you able to drink. I was extremely tight after my third fill and could no longer guzzle Water. Had I been unable to drink at all I would have called the doc immediately.

Has it gotten any easier since you posted this? As the swelling goes down, it should loosen up a little.

Thanks for the replies, I actually ended up going to pittsburgh late lastnight to Magee Womens hospital and the on-call surgeon toke out 4 c.c. I felt soooo much better. It was getting to the point where I was barely able to swallow my saliva and I halso had heartburn. My daughter and I went to Kings and I had a huge salad!!! I wasen't quite sure why he took out 4 c.c b/c the Dr had only put in 1 1/2 c.c when I was there on Friday but at that point I diden't care. It took my band from 8c.c to 4c.c. I have another Dr's appt on Aug 23rd so im sure she willl adjust it as need be. I got home about 230 am but I felt alot better. This is very nice to know that this web=page is out there, im very glad I found it, and thanks again for commenting it made me feel alot better. I will post some updates soon. THANKS!!!!!:smile2:

TELL the Dr. ASAP. Don't do like I did a few days ago & end up dehydrated & in ER. I was instantly better when Dr. got out of surgery & UNfilled me just 1/2 cc. Doesn't sound like it makes that much difference...but in me, it did. Spent a most miserable 24 hrs, not wanting to bother the Dr. Not supposed to be uncomfortable...and in this heat wave we're in...can get dehydrated very quickly. Good Luck to U...and let us know what you end up doing. Dr. said it's called "pooling in your esophogus"...and will only get worse without intervention from him.

I just went to the Dr. yesterday and had my third fill to almost 8c.c. By the time I got to the car I was already vomiting up the spit I was unable to swallow. It has been done now for over 24 hours and I have only consumed about 12 ounces of Water. Is this normal or should I call the Dr??? Thanks!!!!:smile2:
