Had a fill about 3weeks ago. Been having issues for 2 weeks now throwing in the towel and calling the doctor tomorrow for an unfill. Reflux , PBing,just not doing well with this.

Thanks for all the comments! I did call my doctor on Friday to be told that no one is in the office and to go to the ER. I have not gone did not feel that I was that bad. I am watching what I eat drinking a lot of liquids and will follow up with them on Monday. Of course if things worsen I will go to ER

I got a fill last Thursday . It's kicking in today, my fills usually take a week before I notice a difference. Anyone else band do this? I also think I am to tight. I ate some chicken salad for lunch and after a few bites was done. I ended up vomiting once and was fine. Tonight I ate 2 bites if Mac and cheese and felt the feeling of being stuck. Have vomited 2 times and still not feeling any better. Hope I can get into the dr tomorrow there is only 1 who can access my port the others can not find it.

I deal with this shoulder pain often!! I can feel the knot it's very painful I have not been able to convience my dr it's band related as it happens when I eat just a little or to much it can start a few minutes after eating or hours later!!

I had my surgery in 2010. It was a decision I do not regret at all!!! I weighed almost 400 pounds had to loose 20 before surgery and now 2 years later I have lost 100 it's been very slow but that is the best was. Good luck on your surgery!!!

It would depend on your band as to who made it. There are several. I have no suggestions for you. My port needed replaced a year after it was put in due to it flipping and breaking the stitches . This to was rare. No issues since the replacement .

I have shoulder pain as well some days it's after eating some not. This week it's been bad. I have a TENS unit for my back that I use on my shoulder it does help. I can also feel like a knot where it hurts, it's getting worse and has me worried that there is something wrong with my band. I was banded in March of 2010.

Hello! I am new to this site just found it today. I was banded on March 3rd of this year. I have 4.4cc's in my 10cc band. I have had 3 fills the last one was last week. I have lost 30-35lbs since surgery. I look forward to talking to everyone!
