I know that's vague, but I wanted your attention.

My band last adjustment was the 21st of January, nearly 4 weeks. I've been doing great eating wise. I'm under a HUGE amount of stress, and I know my band/stomach doesn't like stress. In the last three days, I have pb'd like 3 times. Twice because I tried to answer the phone while eating meals. From now on the answering machine gets the damn thing. Today, I am having trouble eating anything past the pudding consistancy. Seriously I pb'd on thinned mashed potatoes for lunch. I'm good getting liquids in. I know I should call the dr, but any other suggestions?

Teri:eek:

You may have swelling due to the previous PB's. Add to that the stress you are going through and you have problems. Go back to liquids for a few days then slowly build back up to solids. If that doesn't do it then you may want to consider a slight unfill.

I had a complete unfill. I had 5 cc's in my 10 cc band. And now I'm dry as can be.

Teri, sweetie, I am so sorry. I have been so wrapped in my own "crap" that I haven't checked on the board.

Stress can cause all kinds of yuck. When I am stressed I feel tight, other times, the rest of the time, I don't feel anything. I was told about your stomach swelling. It will get better. I promise.

Hang in there sweetie. As soon as the swelling goes down you will feel much better. Debbie

I do feel better with no Fluid in the band. Tomorrow is the big day. I'll get back somewhere between 4 and 4.5 ccs.

I'm so excited to get it back.
