  1. No PB's or sliming. I had my first fill on August 3rd, and I can't tell much difference in restriction. (went from 2.5cc to 3.5cc) The only difference I have noticed is that meat doesn't want to go down as easy, but I eat slowly and chew thorough, so I haven't had any major problems. Haven't thrown up once since surgery. My next appt to see the surgeon is September 15th.
  2. I don't get the hiccups when drinking, but it seems like I get them often when I stand up after I've been sitting awhile. I commute about 30 minutes to/from work everyday, and I've learned to expect a few hiccups when I get out of the car every day.
  3. I am 10 weeks out from surgery and started noticing a few days ago that my tummy felt sore after I ate. I thought maybe I ate too much, so I decided to eat less next time. At the next meal, I noticed the soreness/pain was back after the first few bites. The final straw was when I simply had a glass of Water before bed Friday night, and the pain was back. The pain isn't debilitating, more annoying than anything. I feel it after I eat/drink and anytime I'm stretching or laying on my stomach. It feels like it's coming more from the band and not the port. I came here and read numerous posts Friday night and didn't conclude anything, but it seemed like the remedy for almost everything was going back on a liquid diet. So, I did that yesterday, but no change yet. Any ideas what this could be? Thanks for your help!
