Hi-I don't know where to turn. I was banded 3 months ago and have lost 40lbs! I got my 2nd fill about a month ago. Last week, about 30 mins after I ate, I got all light-headed, clammy, dizzy and axious and had severe nausea all at once. Even though most of it went away after a few minutes, the nausea persisted as did the anxiety.(I have never had a panic attack in my life) The next morning I ate and 30 mins later same thing. Went the ER and they did tests and said I have gallstones and anxiety. So then I had an episode again the next day(at this time I was barely eating anything cause they told me to eat bland, gallstone diet.) Went to the gallbladder surgeon & he said my symptoms were a-typical of gallbladder-espcially since I haven't had pain. He felt like it was something to do with the lap band. I called Dr. who did my band and went in. He was surprised at my symptoms cause it sounds like "dumping syndrome" associated with gastric bypass. He took out .5cc & told me to come back in a few days if it's not better and he will take out more and I will need an upper GI. I have gurgling sometimes and have it seems like tightness in my throat. Is there anyone out there that has had anything remotely close to this that can give me advice? THanks so much!!
