Got a 1/2 cc fill on monday I now have 6cc's I am unable to drink anything including water. I live 4 hours away from the Dr's I would hate to drive all the way back for nothing. I've never had pain or not been able to drink water like this before? Any thoughts?

Even though you live so far away, I'd consider going back to your doctor. Maybe give it until this afternoon to see if it's just swelling, but if you can't hold water down you're damaging your body and your band. Don't suffer with a tight band! People say even the smallest fill (.1-.5cc) can really make a difference and get you to your sweet spot.

I would deffinately go in for an unfill if you can't even keep water down. You are in danger of getting dehyrdrated. The doc. may not take all of it out and hopefully you will have restriction.

I agree with vlp. Call them up, explain what's going on and most likely they will tell you to come in. That's a serious problem. Water is required for survival!

I have read that warm liquids like broth and tea help with the swelling more than cold Water. Cant say from experience for that solution,

one thing is for sure you will get dehydrated fast if you can't drink anything, and you will have more problems than you know what to do with if that happens.

If you can't drink water, you need to make the trip back to your doctor. Sooner, rather than later.

are you throwing up every few minutes, (your saliva filling your stomach) if so get back to a doctor immediately. Sometimes when you get a fill you have some swelling and that makes it worse the first few days, but you should always be able to get water and broth type stuff down. If you cant you are in real danger of dehydration and that is nothing to fool around with. After my port revision surgery they overfilled me and I could not even swallow my own spit, this is no fun and not worth it, so get this taken care of.
