Today is the day the lord made.. :thumbup:and that seems to get me in a good mood, knowing I was blessed to have another day. However, this band is really getting my spirits down. I was at 7.7 cc's in my 11cc band and had to have .5cc's removed due to chronic vomiting. I thought it was better yet I still vomit a lot every day just not as much as before. :eek:I’m thinking of getting at least 1cc taken out. I was never a person to vomit. Now it's a everyday thing for me and weighing me down mentally. :)

god bless me because I don't know what to do from here. I really feel I need to have this taken out. :)

Hang in there...you can do this! It does sound like maybe you do need to be unfilled a little. Restriction is good - but when it hinders the nutritional aspect of food, it defeats the purpose. Results won't happen over night no matter how you handle this, so slow and steady will be best - and that will be better done when you can actually eat. Hang in there. But I would definitely suggest talking to your Dr. about this and don't be opposed to an unfill.

And you are right - God has blessed you - with another day and the wherewithall to know something's got to give here.

If you've tried liquids for a few days (after your last unfill) to let the stoma swelling (from the vomiting) go down and you're chewing well and following the rules, but are still vomiting...then get back to the doctor for another unfill post haste! You don't want to end up with a slip, or worse. Best wishes! -BG

I'm doing the same thing right now... for the last couple of weeks, my puking has increased, so I started Tuesday going back to liquids and real soft foods. I'm thinking it may be swollen and I need it to go down, especially before Thanksgiving!!! don't need to have an incident in front of my family. If this doesn't work then it back to the Dr's. office. good luck!!
