Sick!?!?! Or From Fill???



Recommended Posts

I got my first fill yesterday. (4cc's) Today was the first time I ate. I had a slim fast for Breakfast and was fine. Today at lunch I have a piece of chicken shredded tossed in lettuce tomatoes and some salsa on it. (I also had a few french fries... :(

About 5-10 minutes afterwards I started getting the jitters, a headache, and started feeling real tired and icky in my tummy. Same thing after dinner. Has anyone felt like this?

You cant expect to eat the same after a fill as to what you ate before it. Most after a fill go on mushies and liquids for a day or 2 to allow for any swelling to go down.

I am sure u can live without french fries too :)

I havent had my fill yet but boy have I had the headache and the jitters! either ate too fast, too big of a bite, or much. or ate the wrong thing. Its crazy >Mine are better when I follow all the right routine but its alot to remember. They say it gets easier but it sure doesnt feel like it.. hang in there

I'm with the others, I haven't received my first fill yet (not by choice, that's another story). My doc requires 2 days of liquids and 2 days of mushies after a fill. Check with your docs office or the paperwork they gave you.

I did that once when I was over filled,But I was able to even keep Water down! You got a big fill and it may just be to much, I did that when I first had my band and had all but 1cc removed..I am actually staring over after having a illness not due to the lab band at all . I have noticed after a week my band seemed tighter.

  1. I'm surprised to hear you got 4cc's on a first fill. My doc's office won't do more than .5cc's at a time....slow, slow, slow. You do need to do the liquid or mushies right after a fill.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
