what is wrong with me....

So I was banded in March had a fantastic start. Dropped 20 PDS in the first two weeks. Got my first fill May 1st and did pretty good (nobody mentioned it would hurt to get your first fill lol) well now the last 3 days I've been getting sick no vomit but salty saliva and sometimes the gut reaction but no vomit. I've chewed and chewed and I've drank and drank. Fluids perfectly fine...foods not so hot. Nothing taste good I would rather just drink fluids all day. Tmi moment approaching (I'm just starting my woman time) is KT possible my band is just oober tight from the fill and my woman time (noticed it got tight last month too) I'm not sure if I'm battling an illness or if its band related. Oh and in case your wondering I'm not prego lol. See above tmi lol

*sorry it posted 3 times :/

I'm pretty sure saying "Period" won't offend anyone, so don't worry about that. Also the combined reaction to the new fill and your bloating from your period combining into one sounds like a bad time. If it gets worse, I'd call your doctor or BASNC.

In hindsight, I would track your period and try to schedule your fills for right after it ends.

gut reation is what causes the band to slip as well as the vomitimg...you ight want to call sooner rather then later,

Lol more of an issue that I hate calling it that lol. And yeah problem is I am very irregular so its hard to plan it. :/ my body is weird lol this is day 4 of upset tummy. No vomiting or anything just unsettled if that makes sense.

Yeah I'm not having very much of it tho prolly 3x in the last 4 days and its just once mostly my tummy is unsettled. Ugh I'm ready to feel better. I think its swollen and then my fill which is equalling a mess lol I go to the doctor Wednesday but if I'm jot getting better by Monday I'll make a appointment to go see him.

I'd suggest MAYBE since your last fill, you'll have to try chewing even better, and eating less. What you describe sounds like you're getting "stuck" to me. As long as you aren't having ANY problems getting in enough clear liquids, it may be that you are feeling what my band TOLD me at proper restriction.....slow down, chew well and adapt. Sometimes it was a week or two after a fill before it gave me that indication. Maybe you are getting close to that same "green zone" everybody refers to. I'm glad I didn't hurry back to my doctor for an unfill...(haven't ever had an unfil due to being too tight)...otherwise, I wouldn't have changed my eating habits.

Can't hurt to call though. Best wishes! :)
