Cant keep anything down

Hi. Not sure how to do this so I hope my question posts. I was banded 11/28/12

I have had severe bronchitis - coughing severely for almost a week.

For the past two days I cannot keep anything down-sliming I guess u call it. Has anyone ever had problems with the band after coughing really hard for a period of time. I have a call into my Dr but am anxious to know if anyone else has had this. I don't have pain except for a stuck feeling. Thanks for any help

  • Glad you called your doctor. I would stay on liquids till you go in. Fingers crossed that its just irritation.

Thanks It is just weird. Hoping maybe the band is just irritated/swollen or something simple like that

good thing you called throwing up can cause the band to slip and any fluid in it will have to be removed. If you are drinking and it makes it passed the band u r good keep drink hot things.
