I recently came down with a case of West Nile Virus with encephalomeningitis. It was causing all sorts of vomiting and nausea! Thank God my surgeon called me back and told me to go straight to the E.R. He admitted me from there. I have only had my band done on 04/29/12. I was scared and so sick! He unfilled my band completely. Thank God he did that! I just had my f/u with him this morning. He wants to wait 6 weeks before we start fills again. He wants me to regain my strength back first! I have more problems with everything else, but the band!

Hang in there and let your body heal.

Keep following the band rules

Good luck

Wendy

That sounds really serious. I hope that you make a full recovery really quickly. Good news that your Dr was on the ball and did the right thing to prevent future problems.

Holy crap!!! I wish you a fast recovery!! I'm glad your doctor worked quickly to prevent any further issues...ugh! Good luck and hope that you're resting well!

My surgeon, also, takes that precaution. I heard him tell a teacher to come in for an unfill if she contracted the stomach virus going around school. Best wishes, and hope you feel better, soon. Karen

Thank you all for being so encouraging! I'm feeling much better now. Still have

Sorry, still have some residual effects but much better still!
