tight band?

I got a band adjustment @ the end of may and i've been fine ever since 3 days ago. I cant seem to keep anything down. Its more of slime coming up not the food. I've been chewing how im supposed to but the slime just wont stop. Does anyone know if my band might be too tight. Can it get tight this long after the adjustment doesnt seem right but need some input??? Im lost.:redface:

I find my band tighens up on its own from time to time, usually during times when I would retain Water, pre time of the month or during very hot weather, also when I am really stressed. I find that for 4-5 days I can only get fluids and shakes down and then things go back to normal.

As long as you can keep fluids down you will be ok and not dehydrated. if you have been pb'ing a lot your oesophagus will be inflamed so go back to liquids for a day or so to allow things to settle down and then gradually work you way back up to solid food.

if you are worried give your bariatric team a call and if you can't keep liquids down, go and get an unfill as soon as possible.
