HELP!!! So upset!

I was banded March 30,2006. My biggest fill was 7.0 cc and I went from 295 to 216 within the first 18 months. I went to my surgeon regularly, and was very pleased with my results. I went to my Dr. in August of 2007 and did not get a fill- stayed at 7 cc, and then went back in December 2007. During my xray the surgeon discovered that my bad was slanted... he de-filled me and put me on a two week liquid diet. I went back, and they could only fill me to 3 cc. January of 2008, I lost my job and my health insurance....I have since gone up to 269 lbs.. and I throw up/vomit several times a day and rarely eat. But for some reason I cannot lose the weight, even though I don't keep much food down. I cannot see any surgeon or specialist, I am currently working, but they don't offer health insurance and I can't afford to just go and self-pay. What do you think is wrong with my band????:thumbup:

We could only make guesses. The only way to know for sure is to have someone look at it.

It is possible that you have slipped. Seems to me that 7CC at one fill is an awful lot and could very well have contributed to the problems. I've never recieved 1/2 that much in one fill, but maybe my docotor is just too conservative???

Review how and what you are eating. Are you taking tiny bites, chewing well, pausing between bites and stopping before you eat too much?

It could also be stress. I immediately get tight with any amount of stress. If you are stressed due to your recent life changes it could be causing you to feel tight.
