Feeling a bit sore

Hey guys. I am about 7 weeks post-OP and everything had been going very well until Thursday evening. I choose to wait an extra month before getting my first fill because I was going out if state for a reunion.

I ate something that disagreed with me. I didn't eat too much or too fast, I think it was just some bad fruit or something. Anyway, that evening I got sick (of course was too far away from nausea meds) and vomited from below the band and ejected everything.

Since then I've been scaling back to liquids but my stomach where I presume the band is, feels sore after eating and I feel a bit more gurgle and gassy with some nausea related to that.

I have my first fill apt on the 30th but I'm wondering if I should go in earlier. I know a one-vomit occasion doesn't usually cause slippage but because my surgery was so recent and it was a full vomit if there might be a risk... :(

  • There could be a risk but you might want to go back to liquids for a few days or at least mushies to give your stoma and pouch a chance to calm down from possible swelling. It never hurts to call you

JessS I agree with TMF, I'd call the doctor and see what he has to say-before you move forward with a fill!!! He might wish to look at things inside first!!! Best wishes dearheart!
