Has my band slipped again?



Recommended Posts

Hi. I've had my band for over a year now and about 4 months ago I had my band slip due to travel, stress and constant throwing up in a span of 2 weeks. anyway, that has been taken care of and i haven't had any problems until I travels about 2 weeks ago. I've been throwing up off and on, trying to just eat Soup, but today I've started throwing up bile like i did when my band had moved. Should i call my doctor or go to the emergency room? or see if it improves?

Thanks for your help.

Ladies (and Gents) PLEASE PLEASE do not waste a moment of time posting here if things like this are happening to you, call your doctor or get to the ER straight away!! This is not a good thing, if you are throwing up constantly it is not a good sign!!

1) You could be to tight

2) your band could have slipped

3) you could have the flu and need some anti-Nausea medication

4) or something else is wrong and we just don't know

Please please call your surgeon explain to them what is happening or go to your local ER before you post your health is more important then some ones opinion on what we might think is wrong.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
