Blockage or swollen? Please help

I took a bite of pizza and tried to eat it like I could pre-band. Before I realized my mistake, I gulped it down. I spent the next 30 minutes puking, getting bits of it out. I woke up this morning and took a couple of drinks of water and some of it came up. I heated up some soup for lunch (cream of squash) and was able to get about 3 spoonfuls downs. Do you think I am just swollen from throwing up or could I have blockage? Also, I am due for my period and usually feel more restriction around that time. This is miserable!!! Thank you in advance for your help. Susan:help:

This happened to me a few times. My doc gave me a complete unfill and then refilled me a few days later. The last time it happened was last week. I was in intense pain, vomitting up foamy bubbles and unable to keep even water down. Never wait to call your doc if you can't even keep liquids down ----- it will only get worse and you don't need to suffer like that. I got so weak it was hard to even walk across the room.

Once again, thank you very much for sharing and posting. I got a fill on 6/20 with my new doc, Dr. Chang and boy, is he very different than my surgery doc. He spent 40 minutes just talking with me and his fill tech was 100% different, as was his philosophy. I still seem to get a sour stomach feeling every now and again, but it's 100% different. Thank you again, susan
