Is This Normal?

Yesterday I had my 3rd filling. He put in 2 cc's and it was too much I couldn't hold water down so he took out .75cc's and it was ok Ok, so I was on liquids for the remainder of yesterday after my fill. Today I ate a small breakfast and its hrs later and it still won't go down. I drink water, tea and it comes back up. Not all of it but a good amt of it. I think I may have gotten too much filling although he did take out some. Im going to try liquids for the next 3 days and see if that helps. Anyone gone through this or is going through this???

If you have Water coming back up, you're still too tight.

I would go back in for a little unfill sooner than later. Dehydration is dangerous a band too tight can lead to serious complications.

Best wishes to you.

I would contact your doctor.

It's possible you're too tight, but also possible that you're still swollen. My dr's guidelines are liquids the day of a fill, soft foods on day 2, and regular food on day 3. He has actually added an extra day in there for me as I tend to stay swollen longer. I think I'd call the office and see what they say.

I called the Dr today and he said clear fluids the rest of the day and he will see me tmrw morning at 10am. I hope he only takes .25 or .5cc's at most. It's hard for me to keep liquids down. It takes too long,and some still comes back up after a while after my saliva accumulates. Not normal at all. The tightening starts loosening up when you're losing weight right? That's what I've been told by some ppl on here.

I have never felt the tightness although I do still get stuck sometimes, glad you called the doctor. :)

I threw up and could not eat very much at all for three weeks following my last fill, i was having reflux over night and was fairly miserable. I went very gently , Doc said i ate too soon after the fill and probably had something stuck. I was all set to insist he took out a bit and almost overnight it all settled down. I have pretty good restricting and am not throwing up any more. I lost nearly 3 kilo in three weeks - that has now slowed as i am back to eating regular foods again. My doctor says as you lose the band loosens. Not to much more i hope as i have 10 ml in my 10lm band.

I'm going to the Dr today to take some filling out. Even water is a struggle for me so solids are definitely out of the picture. Even puree is a struggle. I wanna lose weight but I wanna stay healthy doing it. Looking fwd to today and seeing how much I lose the rest of the mth.

Something definetly blocking ur band just skeptical Fluid out wait two weeks then put t bak in

Just got out of the Dr's. He took out .5cc's and I felt instant relief. However, I do feel weak since I've been on an empty stomach for 2 days. I'm drinking a glass of cold milk and it feels sooooooo good. So my 3rd filling went from being 2 to 1.25 to .75 cc's. 4 more weeks for my next fill. Looking fwd to the weight loss with this one. :)
