Fill And Gurgling

pugmama

414 views

I was banded on 5/16/12 and i just went for a fill last Tuesday. I now have 7cc,s. I am not able to get any solid food down since my fill and I have a lot of gurgling. I wouldnt be that concerned and would probably live with it for a while as I think it would push little weight loss except i am leavng for Disney a week from today with my family. I dont expect to eat a lot but would like to be able to eat more than liquids in a restaurant. Does anyone think I should call the Dr or will it loosen up?

I haven't had my first fill yet, so I'm not sure what that feels like. I don't think it would hurt to call your Dr just to see what he says. He's there to help!

Have fun in Disney!

If you can't get any solid food down, even when taking small bites and chewing it til mush, you're too tight. Being too tight and risking a slip isn't even remotely worth the extra weight loss. Call your doc.

I actually had this problem at 7.4 cc's and yes it is a real problem everything that your saying was happening to me call your doctor you should still be able to eat solids if you cant they have it too tight. I had .4cc's out and then they put in .5cc's and it got to the point of bad for me i had a whole night in the hospital because i got sever heart burn i wasn't eating or drinking because it hurt so bad they told me if i would have waited any longer to come in my stay in the hospital would have been longer. I waited six days before going and thanks to a friend on here they told me to go and i wasnt going to go i thought it would get better wrong! Thank god for my husband making me go. Really call your Doctor make an appointment tell them what is going on. there is noting worst then not listening to your body trust me! If the band is to tight nothing good will come from it. Good luck!

Thank you everyone. i did go to the DR today and he took out 1cc. That is what he put in, So we decided that I will go away ans see the Dr when I get back and he will pit in .5 cc and see how I do with that. I am feeling so much better. today I was able to eat scrambled eggs and yogurt. And can drink now without it pooling in my throat.
