Hi!
I had my Realize Band placed October 8th 2010. My first fill was Dec 17 with 4 cc's placed..After the fill I was on a liquid diet for 3 days and began eating solid proteins after that without any difficulty. I have only had 2 issues with slimming and subsequently spitting up some of my food. I began to feel really hungry during the month of February and I returned March 21 for a 2 cc fill. This fill made a significant difference and I have adjusted my food to 3-4oz of food usually closer to 3cc.
After my first fill I did have some righ side pain. My GP sent me for a Gallbladder ultrasound and HIDA scan both of which were normal. Before I had my fill in March I had some occasional "stitching" pain when I lift a heavier object or exercise. The port is not at all sore. I reported this to my surgeon and per my report of stsrting a Zumba class he examined me and I have no fever no difficulty swallowing or consuming my foods, we decide to take it easy for a period of time and report any worsening of symptoms.
Since my fill, I continue to have pain after eating in my right side. increased abdominal gas no heartburn The pain is now straight across my abdomen at waist level on both sides now. I do not have any difficulty eating or swallowing...My question is..Is this normal has anyone ever had this type of pain before. Could this be gas related pain? I continue to have no pian at the site of my port..no burping esophageal reflux...occasionally this pain goes through to my back but not always...HELP????...lol
