Hi

I've been suffering from a burning tummy for a week or so. Before it came and went. I 'd eat rolaids and it would be gone. Now nothing is working. I keep sliming and I have not eaten.

Anyone experience anything like this?

What you are describing sounds like a problem with the band rather than a gallbladder problem. I would advise you call and make an appointment to be seen ASAP. This could be a serious problem but only your surgeon can do the testing required to give you your answers and devise treatment options.

yeah, Lila, I agree... you need some checking done! (do you mean you keep sliming EVEN when you haven't eaten, or you haven't eaten cause you keep sliming?) Either way, give your doc a call, and see what they want you to do!

DEFINITELY call it in Lila! Keep us posted.

Ditto with all of the above. Doesn't sound like gallbladder. Call the Doc

Take care

OK I'll call TLBC tomorrow am.

Good....that you are calling. Ler us know what they say. We alll want to know.

Wednesday I was in the most discofort and I had not eaten anything. So I thought it couldn't possibly get worse if I eat! So I ate a prepackaged frozen meal. And the burning was all most gone!! When I woke up it was starting to burn I ate and again it went away. very weird, as long i have eaten i feel ok

Glad to hear that Lila, did you call TLBC and get there opinion? Your weight loss is incredible. How long have you been banded?

Lila i had that too. Don't know if it was the flu . I had test and they came back normal. I had a fluro xray and my band was fine. I had 2 defills and it felt better but it took awhile for swelling and inflammation to go down. Drink camiloe(sp) tea it helps the digestion system. It really works.

Thanks Loriely

I'll try the tea and a de-fill!
