band filled 9/4/09

when i had my surgery on 7/22/09.my band was filled at that time with 3 cc's.i ended up at the dr's office that same night to get fluid removed from my band because i was in so much pain and getting so sick to the point of dry heaving.ever since then i still have trouble with food.such as eating when i am suppose to and some things getting stuck and i am nauseous a lot.so when i went for my appt on 9/4/09 he filled my band with 2 cc's.now in the mornings i am having trouble eating anything.i just don't have an appetite.as the day goes on it gets a little better,but he wants me to eat every 3 hrs and i just can't do it.i also still can't tolerate the protein shakes.any suggestions????:thumbup:

What is the problem with the protein shakes? Can't keep them down? Have you thinned them with water. Mix1 is higher in sugar, but it's a thinner brand. Pure Protein is also a bit thinner. If it's been 3 days since your most recent fill and you still can't even take a thin liquid, i would talk to your doctor. Sounds like he/she is being more aggressive than most doctors. In my opinion too aggressive about fills but I'm not a doctor of course. Good luck!
