Severe Pain And Throwing Up

It started last night around 7:30pm ... I am having severe pain in between my ribs right in the center. So much so I had toile a trip to the ER.. They did test and X-rays to see if it was a slippage or something and everything came back fine.. I got a hold of my surgeon today and he suggested I get an in fill that I may be to tight. My last my first fill was over 2 weeks ago... Can it get too tight this far out from the fill? And sorry for typos I'm ont phone

On my way to his office now... This pain is horrible !!!

yes, definitely listen to your surgeon. I have read others post as well that they didn't get full effects of fill right away and some have a couple weeks later. Otherwise, I would think that maybe something you ate last night got stuck and caused the agony. Many times after a stuck episode people revert to liquids for a day or two to let the stomach settle down. Did this happen right after eating?

please keep us posted how you are feeling God Bless you

No i didn't get stuck at all...and it did start about an hour after I ate

Iam betting on food being stuck and it is sore now...take it easy for a couple of day. feel better soon.

Keep us posted on what your surgeon says.

a quick tip when that happens write down what you ate so as to keep a list of possible no's that way if it happens again you know that item is no longer allowed at all.

Office and they actually did an un fill and said that I was to tight.. They took all if the Fluid out to make sure that that was what was causing my pain and I get a refill on Tuesday or they said I could wait until after thanksgiving... I did have instant relief as soon as they took the fluid out. I don't think it was something stuck because I have had that happen twice before and it washer in my chest area.. This was below my chest . And it was a constant pain. It's rough bc I really thought I was in my green zo zone. I wasn't hungry betweeneals and had lost 10 lbs in 2 weeks. I did only have 5.5 cvs in my band too.

Sorry for all the spelling errors.. I'm on my phone and once I get below a certain point I can't see what I'm writing.

Also if you eat a lot of salt you be one blotted and it can cause being over resisted.

My surgeon recommend in the am drinking sips of Water to judge if it is a solid or liquid day. If the water goes smooth it is a solid day. If it sits and goes slow it is a liquid day.

To must salt the day before or hormones can cause the blotting and to much restriction .

I have 5 cc band and 3 months ago I filled with .5 so now I am at 3 cc but for last 3 weeks I have a hard time to eat any solid food I am confused I was fine suddenly got tight. I am PB 4 to 5 times a day I have an appointment next Thursday just wondering how much should I remove? It is costly every time I fill or un fill. Please help any suggestion? I don't want to be loose I just wanted to be able solid food I can keep liquid not creamy liquid but no matter I eat slow and chew my food seems like stuck and doesn't go down.
