Last night was HORRIBLE!!! We went out to dinner on Wed. night. I got a salad. Then exactly 24 hours later, on my way home from work, I started feeling awful!!! I was had severe nausea. After I got home I got sick up every 1/2 hour (both ends) I was so scared I was going to hurt my band or my port. The force and pain of heaving that much was the worst experience ever! I had a pretty bad case of food poisoning 20 years ago and this reminded me of that. Not as bad as my experience from 20 years ago...but very close. I was up all night... every 1/2 hour to 45 minutes in the bathroom until 5:00 am this morning. Today I'm feeling weak and trying to get some liquids as I know I must have been pretty badly dehydrated. I'm now scared to eat. Has anyone else ever had to deal with food poisoning or a "bug". My husband was pretty scared too that I was going to hurt my band and wanted to bring me to the hospital. I kept telling him that I would be OK... I didn't let on how nervous I really was.

I am so sorry that you felt so aweful!! I had food poisoning twice and it was the worst pain ever. The one time I felt as if I were in labor-that's how bad the pains were. I couldn't move off the floor! If you don't feel any different I am sure the band is fine. Definitely get those fluids back in your system!! Hope you feel better soon!

As long as you are tolerating liquids you should be fine. My doc. said you know the band slipped when suddently you can't even keep water down. Sorry you got sick and hope you feel better soon.
