I had a horrid overfill........docs mistake, but I had 2cc in my band and wanted a .2cc fill. He gave me a 2cc fill. I was actually able to drink water but the time it took to get home I was spitting foam. THe next day I was unable to keep my spit down and spitting up blood. He unfilled me to 2ccs again, but I can barely do liquids now 5 weeks later,,until dinnerr. Dinner is fine. Doc I saw today says I probably have a slip, am waiting for xx-rays.... Prayers and good thoughts welcome!

I hope you don't have a slip my dear.

Significant difference between 2 adn .2, I hope that is all it is.....

very significant.......i cant tell you how distresed i am.

Poor dear!!! I hope your doctor is assuming responsibility in this!

Sadly enough my band surgeon is deceased.....i dont even have that.

Man that is terrible, I did the foam thing last week from being too tight, plus it's painful. I wish u well, prayers are with you....

Well, the foam thing lasted until an unfill.. I aam worried siince I still have issues.

Thanks girls..........and anyone else that wants to throw a prayer my way!

Have you had a total unfill? I just went through the same thing and was unfilled for three weeks to heal. The blood is from irritation. My doctor compared it to irritated gums and how they bleed. I feel for you! You must be awfully dehydrated and anemic.

My prayers are with you. I know how anxious you can get waiting to find out if your band has slipped. When I had the barium swallow Tuesday I thought I was going to crawl out of my skin I was so nervous. Everything turned out fine and it just made me want to baby it even more.

Maybe you just need to have everything removed and let it rest. I can't believe after you were spitting up blood that they didn't remove all of the saline.
