Little Help Here Please

Hello all, so i'm a little over a year post op from my surgery. Started at 273, now at 226..so its going. I've found that right after I get fills, it's hard to eat...but after a month or so...I have no problems...meaning I overeat. Anyone else have this problem? Wondering what that happens.

BUT, my main question is,..I had a fill 2 months ago and the band seemed perfect. I was feeling full at the right amounts, could keep food down...all was great. Then over the past week, out of nowhere, I can't keep anything down. I can barely even keep liquid down. I don't feel like there has been any slippage with the band...just seems wieird. Any ideas and has this happened to anyone else?

Thanks

    If all the sudden you're barely even able to keep liquids down, you need to get into your surgeon and checked for a slip.

  • I've never had your problem but it sounds like a possible slip? I've read others speak of this and I hope I'm wrong. Better check in with the doc. tmf

  • Better get to the dr and have them double check. I know I have some days I am tighter than others. Plus the weather seems to want to affect it also.
