looking for advice

i had my last fill on nov. 6th, i got a cold right after that with alot of congestion. I was have trouble keeping much of anything down. (food or liquid) I thought my problem was related to sinus drainage. Now I'm not sure, some days i can eat without spitting most of it up. Drinking is still a problem, i'm currently drinking a bottle of room temperature water and it seems to be staying down. I could drink coffee up until about 3 days ago. Enough of this blah blah blah.... Not sure what i should try or do....any suggestions? Probably going to see about getting a little taken out of my lap band this next week. I just hate to take the time and the money (especially the money this close to christmas) i just keep thinking it will get better.

Sounds as if you are too tight. I do know from my own personal experience that when I was sick my band became tighter and I had problems but mine did loosen back up on its own, I have been too tight one time and your symptoms sound very similar to mine, I required a small unfill. Maybe call your surgeon or PCP on Monday and see what they see. Being to tight is not good for you or your band. Good luck and I hope things get better soon, it is miserable to be too tight.

Some good medical info, I have used this site often.
