So Sick to my stomach

:tongue_smilie:Hello everyone. I had my first fill on 3/5/08. No issues..I even have some restriction then on Monday evening I started to feel very sick to my stomach. It is kinda like a roller coaster one second I am fine the next I am sick to my stomach. I spoke to my nurse and she stated that if I am drinking and eating without any issues she does not feel that it is an issue with my band. I just don't know and I hate this feeling.

Any suggestions would be great!

It could be that your lower part of your stomach is empty and the gastric juices are built up - I would try some antacid myself and see if that helps.

I was banded on 3/7/08 and have experienced a lot of nausea especially in the morning and in the night if I wake up. I found if I can force myself to eat something it goes away pretty quickly. Good luck.

I had my band take out and replaced last week and I am so sick of my stomach. Today is one week and still can not smell food. Medicine if i put in my mouth I trouw up but nothing comes out jus big gurgling. Is that normal? Please help me guys.

When you say sick to your stomach, Are you vomiting? I had my first fill about 8 weeks ago and the first 5 weeks, I vomited many times. I was okay with very soft foods but I had a problem with most solids. Apparently my band was too tight and they had to withdraw 1/4 of a cc. If you are vomiting, call your doctor, too much vomiting can lead to band slippage.

Good Luck.

No vomiting. Just nausea. It off and on all day long. I go back to the doctor today and I hope that he will replace the fill that he took out. Because I can really tell that I can eat normal size portions and that scares me. I have heard that some people go thru this with weight loss surgery. I just hope that it ends soon. Thank you everyone ... it's nice to know that I am not alone!
