I had my surgury 9/21/06 and at that time my weight was 358. I now weigh 280. I just had my third fill and now EVERYTHING I eat and half of what I drink causes pain that lasts an hour and a half or so.

what do you think is going on?

Are you PBing? Getting stuck? Or does it just HURT? Maybe you are eating too much - and it is just sitting there stretching your pouch...

PBing or stuck - yep - get an unfill.

If it just hurts - try reducing portion size to a quarter cup or a couple of bites. If it still hurts - see your doc.

Pain is your body warning you that something is wrong - and you should definitely listen to the warning.

Have you had an endoscope? Maybe you should.

Good Luck!

:help: As I said in my first post I had my third fill about 10 days ago. since then I have pain almost everytime I eat. (now always though) Today I had one (1) Doreito with salsa and I was in lots of pain (lots!!!) for around 45 minutes. I took Tums and got no releif. It then suddenly went away. I lost 4 Lbs this week and otherwise feel great. Any thoughts?

You are probably too tight. I just went through an ordeal and had a complete unfill. You should avoid spicy foods. Also, try three days of liquids to let any irritation unswell. If it still hurts, I completely agree that your body is telling you something. You might even be bleeding. It should not hurt to eat, if you are following "bandster rules."

Take care!!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
