I got my band in April overseas and got my first 3cc fill May 18th - then another 2cc in June 20th.

5cc total and im back in the states and im extremely uncomfortable - having the hardest time ever with it.. i can barely eat - and when i do i feel it get lodged and wait it out to go down..

trying to find a DR to unfill me - but its sooo expensive here..

thinking about just going a liquid route and juicing until i go back overseas to see my DR and unfill...

and im not losing weight.. so im just miserable..

Do you keep trying to eat even though it's not going down good? If so you may have caused swelling which will make it ten times worse. Try nothing but liquids for a few days and then try mushy foods and see how it goes.

Sounds like excellent advice to me !
