To tight

I got a fill yesterday. And today has been my worst day ever. I think the band is too tight that I can't even pass my on spit. I have been throwing up all day. I haven't been able to drink or eat anything. I called my doctor but he can't see me until tomorrow morning. I am scared my band is going to slip. Any advice on how to feel better.

If you're vomiting and can't even swallow your own spit then you need to go to the ER. Not only are you risking a slip but also severe dehydration.

Otherwise, if you feel you can make it until morning, go in for a small unfill ASAP tomorrow morning. There really isn't anything else you can do.

Best wishes.

And in the future, don't leave the doctor's office after a fill without drinking an entire glass of water, just to be sure. Feel better.

I was in your boat 5 months ago! And I did drink a full glass before I left the doctors office and everything went down fine! It wasn't until later that night it closed up so tight I couldn't get my spit down! I ALSO went to my local emergency room and they refused to help me! There was not a bariatric doctor there so they sent me home! So I had to wait until that morning to rush to the doc office when they opened! Only thing I did was just keep spitting your spit out dont swallow it! Sorry to hear you're in agony because I know too well that feeling and its scary!!!! It scared me from getting another fill for 5 months :/ I just got a real small fill Monday and not feeling it at all. My doc has set me up for a fill under fluoro next Friday because I have had so many problems trying to find my sweet spot!!! Best of luck to you!
