It may be too tight. However if you have not had a fill in a good long while you will have some swelling for a few days. My doc says that if you swallow the Water and it just sits there before going down then you are swollen, but if the water comes right back up then to come in a see him. Thank goodness that has only happened to me once. Good Luck and just take it slow.

I just had a fill on March 16th and I couldn't keep fluids down either. I called the next day and they said to come in ASAP because my band was too tight. I would get in as soon as possible. You must be dehydrated by now. It only took me one day to become dehydrated because I couldn't keep Fluid down either. Good Luck :thumbup:

I had my last fill about a month ago and all has been fine until this past week. I stupidly tried to swallow an Iron pill and it got stuck. I was able to get it out, but since then, I know I've caused swelling around my band, because I can't keep Water down. Does anyone know how long this will last? I will have to call the Dr if it doesn't subside soon.. I love my water!

(I was banded in Sept 08 and have lost 62 lbs so far.. )

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
