Had to have an emergency unfill.....



Recommended Posts

I ate raw baby carrots for Breakfast yesterday and .... lets just say that wasn't tooooo smart :) I chewed well..but I got stuck..but nothing would come up for hours. I couldn't eat all day or night. Not even pudding would go down.

Today I am fine..but ate soft foods just incase it is irritated in there.

Hope everyone has a good week.

Catherine

Thank goodness neither one of you had a slip! Sorry you had to go through that with your doc, Brenda. I just can't comprehend how some people can have such rude personalities & still have a business. Good for you for getting a new doc! Take care of yourself!

Ok my heart just dropped, your doctor told you to never eat cornbread again!!!!!! My mind is already turning, I am sure that in the two years you have had your band you have eaten corn bread before, oh please tell me I am right. :faint:

I thought that was one of the beauties of the band, there was no food that was a no-no!!

I am hoping this was just part of him being the jerk he is and cornbread in a bowl of Beans can we our friends.

UGHHHHHHHH I think I need to have some now before my second fill and restriction sets in!

Tammy, Yes, I had ate cornbread and Beans several times since my surgery 2 years ago, it just got stuck this time. I guess I am too scared to try it again though after my incident. The more fill you have and the tighter your band is, you gotta be more careful ie., things that might have been no problem in the beginning might now get stuck, with the hole smaller it passes through with more fills. That is just what the nurse told me yesterday when we talked. Here are a list of foods I could not tolerate when I had 6 cc in my 10 cc band: white bread, pastas, rice, cheetos, mac and cheese. So I just swore off eating them once I had trouble once with them. Everone is different though....it might not even effect you that way at all. Good luck

Brenda- Not only do you deserve better, you demand better! Shame on that doctor. I know you are doing fine now but another fill dr. would be my suggestion. Thanks for sharing with us. Flashover

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
