I've had my band put in jan 2013 I've done we'll up until this last fill, after the fill I had a very difficult time eating anything with "substance" so I stuck with soft foods.. Now 3 weeks later my insides are on fire!!!! Vomiting after everything liquids or food. I can't even lay down I've been sit sleeping on my couch! My body is exhausted. I'm sitting in the er waiting for them to tell me something.. Has anyone gone through something like this or do u think u know what's going on?

Sorry your having this experience, but your in the right place!! Only the professionals in the Hospital will be able to give you the answers that you need!!

Keep us posted, I pray it's a simple complication.

I'm not a doctor, but it sounds like you're too tight, and need to have some Fluid removed.

Just a word of caution..... ERs are not necessarily proficient with band issues. If possible, call your surgeon and see if he can interface with the ER doctor. I think it's important...

Hope you're feeling better soon.....

You definitely sound too tight. Go back to your doctor, tell him everything you wrote here, and see if he doesn't want to do a small unfill.

Here's a good article about why tighter isn't better: http://www.lapbandtalk.com/page/index.html/_/support/post-op-support/tighter-isnt-always-better-r118

Thanks everyone.. My surgeon did have an on call surgeon come see me still waiting for him to review everything ill keep you posted

Well you were all right thank you very much, my band was to tight.. Being only 6months out I should have only been filled at about 2-3cc the most.. I was at 4cc. They emptied my band completely to make sure I can tolerate liquids and I am now.. I'm going to Follow up at my drs office Monday
