Last week I had my band unfilled due to not being able to hold anything down. It got so bad to where I couldnt even hold my water it would just come back up. So my doctor unfilled my ban and I have been able to keep everything down now but the problem is that Im swollen now and it seems to not go down. I called my doc and he told me it was because I was dehydrated has this happened to anyone else cause i wasn't this swollen when I was pregnant. Its really starting to freak me out.

how are you doing today mz.Gina? swelling getting any bettter?

Thanks for asking but unfortunately not .. But because of the fluid pill i've urinated today more than ever. I hope to get rid of this fluid soon.

Why does it seems like the more I drink the more my body becomes swollen.? I can't take this anymore

Has the doc said anything about why this is still occuring? I would think things would have started to turn for the better

Hello krussell! My primary wants me to have a venous Doppler done as well as an chest X-ray and a X-ray of my abdominal. The Fluid seems to be going and coming on yesterday I drink a lot of Gatorade and Water and by the time I got home I was swollen again. I just want to get back to my size 2 weeks ago. This makes me not want to ever get my band unfilled.

I completley understand ive had 3 emergency unfills that all lead to even more problems then I had before the unfill.

I hope they figure it out so you cam have some relief!!

Thanks krussell! Me too I will definitely take advantage of this 60 degree weather we suppose to have here in Maryland this weekend to workout. Because I'm truly missing my skinny jeans Lol I'll keep u inform.

I had my band unfilled last week also and now I am suffering from bloating' date=' pain all over my stomach, excessive burping. I feel as if my stomach is swollen but can't really tell. Are you having pain with the swelling?[/quote']

I had my first fill last week and also have had excessive burping. What causes this

Hi Sommers, Yes I experience a lot of pain especially in my lower legs. But for some odd reason the pain started in my buttocks. It's been a week now the pain is gone but my stomach and legs are still swollen.
