Recent fill

I had a fairly large fill last Wed. about 2.5 cc via fluro and I was able to sip water just fine. Wed evening I sipped apple juice and had a hard time keeping it down. The following day I was still having trouble and had an episode of vomiting, mind you my stomach was empty. I called the on call doctor and he told me not to eat or drink anything else for the and when I get up in the AM to sip a cup of hot tea and if it goes down then I probably still had swelling from the adjustment. I did just that in the AM and it went down fine. So fast forward today I was still having that stuck feeling after trying to sip water or juice or eat soup, so I decided that tomorrow I would go have fluid removed but after taking a Zantac I was able to eat half a string cheese stick with no problem and drink a glass of tea. Could that feeling of being stuck have come from acid reflux? As anyone had this experience?

    If you are having acid reflux your band is too tight. So either way it sounds like you need to have a little bit of Fluid removed. Best wishes.

It seems like your dr. added a lot of fluid at once. Any more than one cc to me is too much. At least that is what my Dr has said. I had 2cc put in during surgery and one added, I'm at restriction. Some only need one or two fills, u never know, u may be one of those people.

I think you had a little bit too much fluid in your band during your fill. A little un-fill will make you feel so much better and it doesn't even have to be much. .2- .5 cc does wonders.
