Hi everyone!

I was banded agust/ 2012 and I just had my third fill yesterday and today has been the biggest nightmare. I tried to have some scrambled eggs for Breakfast. Got to about the third little piece and couldn't have anymore and about 15 min later i vomited all the eggs. I thought maybe i had eaten too fast as i was not used to this feeling. For lunch i put some Soup in the blender, had 2 spoons and the same with the eggs i threw it all up. The only thing i was able to keep down with a lot of pain and gurgling was a gogurt. Ive called my doctor and i have an appointment tomorrow. But I'm afraid to get an unfill and be able to eat too much but i also don't wanna stay like this. I feel so frustrated. Does anyone have any advice? I dont know if what im feeling is "normal" if i should just give myself some more time before running to get an unfill? Right now i dont even know how many ccs i have. I never thought to ask until i found this forum today and read everyone talking about their ccs but if i do end up going tomorrow ill definitely ask him how much im at. If anyone could help id be very grateful thank u!

For those of you who state you vomit, please be aware that vomiting is not recommended. Regurgitating food or what we call PB(productive burp) is expected. But a full blown vomit causes your stomach to contract, expand and then violently force food back up through your stoma(band) and into your esophogus. It's not just your new pouch that is rejecting the food, it's the entire stomach. This can cause your sutures that wrap around the band and hold it in place, to rip away and could cause your band to slip.

So, if you can control the vomiting, I would highly recommend it! BTW-this is true for new bandsters and old ones too. New bandsters sutures are probably more easily destroyed though.

And, juju's swelling was exacerbated by the vomiting most likely.

Thats another reason why i feel like i need an unfill i don't wanna be vomiting and i know that not normal and i definitely don't wanna go through my band slipping. Hopefully the dr will be able to clarify and tell me if i really do need an unfill tomorrow. Thanks again everybody for ur support and time! :-)

I was having problems after my last fill. I was told to drink hot liquid in the morning before thinking about breakfast. It has worked for me.

That works for me too
