I have a 10cc band a total of 4 cc in the band my last fill was 2/11/2008. I was eating some chicken and potato skins earlier this week and it got stuck and I know why. Now my question every since then have only been able to eat very little and I get a lump in my throat. It goes away I slime or PB it just goes away on its own. Is it possible I am having a delayed fill reaction. I have read that some times it takes awhile for the fill to kick in. I am scheduled for another fill on the 27th of this month, just wording if I should cancel and reschedule.

Any help would be nice.

Hmmmm...... I don't see a problem.

It sounds like you have achieved restriction. Now let's see if that is enough to see the number on the scales go down.

If it does, if it were me I wouldn't get another fill...you doctor may not even give you one since it's working. And if it's not broke, don't fix it.

But if you are not losing weight, I would get a fill. Your doc would give you just a tad for a tad bit more restriction.

Slime is your friend. That lump in your throat is your friend. Those are signals to STOP eating.

Good luck and keep us posted!

I'm having the same symptoms- the lump in my throat and the feeling of fullness (to the point of discompfort) and wanting to throw up- even though I don't. You mention that this is good... I had a band fill about 2 weeks ago and just over the weekend now I start to fill this.. is it a delayed reaction to the fill? So maybe I am full after a couple of bites?
