Hey everyone- I have been reading about some people that have suffered from allergies and have alot of mucous/drainage, and when they got their Lapband, the drainage made them really sick and they ended up throwing the drainage up... :smile2: so not only is that gross, but also very scary because of band slippage! Anyone with any suggestions or experience would be great!!!

I have bad allergies and have been suffering the last couple of weeks but I have not thrown up or PB'd since I was banded.

I worry about the same thing, but so far it hasn't been a problem for me. Would love to hear if it has been a problem for anybody with bad cold or allergies.

I've been sick for the past month with a flu/cold/death? and it has not done anything with my band, drainage has done what it always did pre-band..

I have been on and off (mostly on) allergy shots since I was 16 and have been on allergy medication since that time. I've been banded since November and have not noticed anything out of the ordinary.

nope...I have felt more mucous gathering, but I haven't pb'd it at all...

Best of luck!

Thanks everyone for your responses... Maybe I was just assuming it was allergies, but maybe it was just sliming associated with PB'ing? Who knows, I'll just need to take it day by day. Thanks again everyone!!
