I had my first fill yesterday and now have 2 cc in my band.I can feel restriction when I'm drinking fluids today it gurgles going down.My doctor's instruction was liquids yesterday, soft foods today, and normal diet tomorrow. I don't think I can eat soft foods today I'm afraid of having a stuck episode. Did anyone else have these problems?I don't know if this is normal or if I should call his office?

My doctor tells me the same thing about eating but for myself I have found that after a fill I stick to protein shakes for about 24 to 48 hours then work my way up to soft then regular. All this is normal what you are feeling, I was the same way. Hang in there.....

if it is not better tomorrow call the doctor, I do not think it shoud be gurgling drinking just water. Hugs

I only gurgle when I am eating incorrectly. I'd give it a few days to check and see if you can eat normally.

I would give it another day on liquids or soft foods and then see. But if you are unsure or uncomfortable call your doctor!! Good Luck!

I worry about the gurgling liquids. I agree with the others, I'd give it another day or two on liquids to see if it relaxes. If it doesn't I'd contact your surgeon for a possible unfill.

Best wishes to you.

Thanks everyone.If it does not get better I will call the doctor.

i had a fill tuesday i was on liquids that day and could feel my water going down especially if i took a large drink...yesterday a was my mushy day i got a small wendys chili and ate that very slowly with no problem i also got lazy that night had a protein shake lol anyways today i had a protein shake for breakfast (not big on breakfast) and some baked chicken tenderloin for dinner i either ate it was to fast or im too tight because i got stuck i unstuck lol and had a protein shake i will give mine a few more days and keep trying more solids because i have restriction for the first time and i dont want to lose it because i didnt chew properly...i definitley didnt get 4 oz of protein in maybe 2 but like i said i think i ate to fast i was way hungry keep posting i want to see what happens lol ill do the same
