Fill Problems

[BoomerSoonerz 0]

Everytime I get a fill, I usually need over 1cc, I go maybe every 4 months. When I get the fill, my stomach doesn't take well to it, and usually locks up so I cannot get anything down, not even my own saliva, so the dr ends up having to take more than half of what he put in out, and 3 days later I am starving just like I was before. What's the deal, anyone had problems with this? He said my stomach might be going into spasms, does anyone know of a way to avoid this, I am getting very down on my lap-band right now.

the same has happened to me twice. Had to have it all removed. now slowly increasing. I havnt lost since July. Its very frustrating. I dont know the answer. I am trying to go every 2 weeks and get small fills. We will see what happens.

I just had my second fill today. Both times I've had to have some removed. The first time, he but in 3 and took out 1. Today, he put in 2 and removed some - I'm sure .5 to 1. I couldn't swallow Water in the office. The nurse said sometimes they've had "slow fillers". Since it happened to me twice, she said they will have to go slow with me every time. I'm a bit discouraged, but I'm sure it will work out. (I'm hoping.) I'm in the same spot of you... I get filled, unfilled, then a few days later - I'm hungary again. I'm sure it's all going to be the way it supposed to.... Good luck!

had my 3rd fill two days ago and I can't get anything down, the same thing happended for my second fill but not this bad. I tired sipping 1 oz every 15 minutes and after 3 sips it was coming up. So much salvia. I told the pa that i had a hard time last time so she said she would only put in .6, last time it was .5 but I had lost some when she checked. What made you get to the point where you went back and had some taken out?
