I have already posted this as a reply to another thread. But Im in pain right now so I thought maybe I needed to take a direct approach by posting it as a new thread......

This has been a continuous problem with me since July. I went for several months with 5cc's in a 10cc band. However I thought I was just playing it safe, and really thought I could go with a little more restriction. I went in and they bumped me to 7. I was fine for 2 weeks, then bam, I couldnt keep nothing down. They took all my fluid out for 3 weeks, then tried 6. Fine for 2 weeks then bam, couldnt swallow water. Another 2 weeks with no fluid at all. Then we tried 5.5. Within a week I was admitted in the hospital for dehydration. I was totally perplexed and went another 3 weeks with no fliud. When I went back they decided they would put small amounts to "build" me back up again. I had 3cc's put in, and could pretty much eat anything (although managed to lose 5 pounds surprisingly). I went back last week after having the 3 put in and told him I thought I could used a tad more restriction. He only put in another .5. Its 4 days later and I feel like I can barely breathe. I puked about 15 times yesterday, for no apparent reason, I didnt eat solids all day. I did this so I could give everything a break. But still was puking massive amounts of fluid.........Im so confused, when I had 5ccs in prior to july i never had these issues now i have less then that and i cant even get applesauce down........

If anyone finds the answer please fill me in...........cause im lost......
