Too tight-NEED ADVICE

Hi all,

I had my 5th fill today, and went from 5cc to 6cc (10cc band). I had very little if any restriction before, and now...

Dr. had me drink water after fill, went down fine, when I got home 30 min later, i had more water and it came up, but I felt ok.

then this evening, I had a couple sips of ice tea and I have been hiccuping and sliming and PBing foam (saliva?)

I would like to wait this out and see how I do for the next few days, but if this keeps up throughout the night, I've got a problem.

should I call the doc tonight? I know I can get in tomorrow if I need to.

thanks!:tt2:

you should definitely call your dr you dont want to get dehydrated by vomiting im sure if he takes out a little of the saline you will feel better we all want to lose weight but dont get sick in the process so please call your dr. Good luck keep us posted

I would wait until tomorrow morning. First thing in the morning, drink something hot and see how it goes. If it doesn't go well, call the doctor early and see if you can get in.

If it doesn't feel better by the end of the day, I would get an un-fill. I had the same thing happen 2 times and I just needed a tiny un- fill. You don't want to be too tight for too long- it can cause erosion.

Good luck!
