Killer Acid Reflux-after My Fill

[Mariposa Bella 3]

I went back for another fill, thinking that I didn't have any restriction since my fill last week, and so I drove out to Miami again and got another .75cc's so I'm up to 2.75cc's. Well anyways, I don't feel like I'm too restricted but I made the mistake of eating posole (Any Mexicans out there will now what I'm talking about) its a shredded pork stew, with hominy corn that is really spicy cause of all the ancho & chilli peppers I put in it. It was really good, knowing that I had just been filled I ate the broth only, well I woke up in the middle of the night, with it coming back into my throat. It was so gross and hurt. I stayed up all night with this heartburn that is killing me, I finally just sat up in bed and slept that way, cause everytime I layed down it would come back up. I feel horrible. It has been all day and I'm still burping it and can't get rid of the hurt. Do you think the fill has aggravated my acid reflux??? I am so miserable, I had brocalli n cheese Soup for lunch and had no problems, but I can't get rid of this acid that is killing away at me.. Any ideas??? Has anyone ever had such a problem after a fill. I don't think I'm overfilled since I have been able to eat without a problem. Oh God, I hate this. Well if you have any advice, please share.

Bella,

The same exact thing happened to me two weeks ago. I had my 6th fill, bringing me up to 2.8cc ina 4cc band. Well, beginning the night I had the last fill, I would wake up with vomit (sorry, I know, too descriptive) in my mouth. This went on all night as soon as I laid down. Well, the next night I took Maalox and prevacid before bed. Same thing, just less acid for the next two nights. Finally, after not sleeping four nights in a row, I went back to the doc and had .04 cc removed. I have been sleeping like a baby ever since. It sounds exactly like me-you are overfilled. Even though you can eat fine during the day, don't let that fool you !!! I should have listened to everyone's advice, but I guess I had to see for myself. GO get yourself some relief-get unfilled !

I got bad reflux after one of my fills. I was the same, I was eating normally so didnt think I was overfilled. I tried all things suggested on here like not eating after 5pm etc and they helped a little. I went back and seen my Dr and he gave me some meds to take for it and I have not had it since....not at all. I hope you work it out as I know how painful it can get.

Good Luck

I use Tums, the quick dissolve, they're the bomb for relief.

Girl,

Im here to tell you - CALL YOUR DOCTOR NOW!

Get some of that fill taken out so you can get some rest. Reflux is a BAD thing anyway you look at it.

You're right Paula, actually, I take Tums for the indigestion, NOT for reflux.

Reflux means you need a slight unfill I would call your Dr. right away... Im with Paula on this!!!
