i know im asking alot of questions but hey im worried bout stuff..

just wondering today ive had alot of syliva build up and it feels like its gettin stuck or is building up is this normal? and wats this mean? and is there anything u can do about it?? :eek:

It just means that your band is restricting how fast the saliva can go down. You might want to try eating more slowly or chewing more. It is called "sliming" and sometimes is the beginning step of pbing, where your food gets stuck and comes back up. Consider it a warning signal from the band that you are either eating too fast, not eating the right foods that the band can handle, not chewing enough, or are a bit too tight. Very normal, and basically a sign that your band is there and functioning.

However, if it gets so bad that you have to constantly spit it out, even when you are not eating, it means that you are too restricted and need to be unfilled a bit.

You didn't specify if it was the saliva you are trying to swallow as just a normal swallow (as in "I'm so tight I can't even swallow") or if it is saliva that is building up as a result of eating too quickly or taking too big a bite. Those are two different things. If you are too tight to even swallow your own saliva, you are too tight. If you are having saliva build up when you eat that is sliming as described above and means you need to slow down and chew more. It usually happens with dry food - does this happen when you eat something soft or mushy? Does it hurt? With the band you should be able to eat normal bulky food without pain or sliming. So try going really slow and taking small bites and if it still doesn't help you might consider a small unfill.

ive got nothing in as a fill im only 6 days post op.. =(

i was how ever eating fast ands eating eggs and bout an hour later the syliva build up starting happening while i was laying down in bed watching tv.. it made me want to throw up felt like the syliva wasnt passng thru..
