I had mt third fill at TLBC yesterday



Recommended Posts

I was also able to drink my Water there, but by dinner time I could not keep Soup down at all, and I have not even been able to keep Water down. I was on course today and did not eat or drink all day until I got home at around 5:00pm, I have still not been able to keep anything down. I don't know if it is just taking time for the swelling after a fill to go down, or if I should go and get a de-fill. My first fill I had to have one cc removed before I left because I could not drink the water while there, the second fill added only one mm and I was able to drink the water before I left and was fine the next day. This time I got 1.5 mm, I was able to drink the water there but now it is just as bad as last night. What do you think? Is there any way to bring down the swelling, eating ice maybe?

Thanks for any suggestions

Thanks, Carla:help:

Hi: You don't want to become dehydrated by waiting it out. Contact the clinic first thing friday and ask. Don't wait for the weekend and then be forced to call Dr. Yau out on a weekend. Better to get it sorted out during business hours if you can. Doddie

I went back today to have a defill, oh what a relief! I had lost 9 pounds in 48 hours so I was really dehydrated, I was so thirsty I didn't care about hunger at all. Nancy took out half of what I had put in on the 26th, so I am now at 5.75.

      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!
