Hello all, earlier in the week I had written about being filled and not being able to get down liquid without it hurting. Now it's Wednesday and I have been a little more successful with getting it down, but not completly, I have been able to eat soft foods and soups and keep them down. But now I am confused, I made an appointment to get some of the fill out but since I have been eating should I re-think that decision? I still feel the need to burp and it's always a sour burp, so at night I am getting reflux. What do I do? I still feel the need to drink more liquids and that continues to be a problem, but food isn't. HELP!

at night I am getting reflux.

Personally I think you are too tight. This was discussed in another thread (see trouble sleeping thread) and the person there is also too tight.

I would call my surgeon and be honest with them about the symptoms I am having and get their recommendations.

Best of luck to ya!

Oh Paleeeeze, you know you need an unfill. If you could barely get down liquids and are still struggling...........unfill. Dont damage your band or health. Get an unfill.

If you can only get down soft foods or liquids you are WAY too tight.

I had this conversation with my Dr. today and he said that being too tight drives bad behavior. He would rather we be a little too loose but able to eat healthy food like hard Proteins, just a skosh too much, than too tight as it makes you eat poorly.

Honey, time to face facts. You are way too tight and you are potentially doing damage to your band by being too tight.

The stuff causing the "sour burp" is (or can be) causing this to happen:

Thanks for the advice, I am going to the doctor tomorrow and I am going to make him do a little unfill. You are so right about eating unhealthy, I have been eating mashed potatoes, cheese curls and keish! (How healthy is that) I really can't wait to dig into a salad and eat some grapes and not have to worry that it's going to come back up.
