So I have had my bad for 2.5 years. i had a fill in march '09 and didn't have it adjusted again until july '10 due to some reflux issues so they took out 1 cc... during this time i started on a medicine that made me gain a TON of Water weight. So on top of this I started noticing I was then eating more that i was used to...so between the 2 I gained 20 lbs...yuck!
so...I went back and they gave me back .5...didn't really do much at all...so i went back again and they added .7, that was last wednesday. so i felt fine and definetly was feeling much more restriction but it wasn't at all uncomfortable.
then comes saturday...we went to a surprise party for a friend and we all ended up sick so we are thinking it was something we ate...so all day sunday i threw up everything but my toenails
NOW it hurts so bad to eat anything (like yogurt) and in the morning i can hardly drink anything...ugh! i have never had restriction like this...it's terrible...
what do i do?? it's a 4 hour drive each way to get my fill so if i can i'd rather wait since we just did the drive last week.
is it just irritated from being sick?? is it just swollen?? will it go back to normal? when? how do i make it normal??
thanks!! (sorry it's so long)
