I was banded in Nov 2010 and although I have not lost nearly as much weight as I thought I would have by now I have been blessed by not having any real issues with it until this last week. I had my last fill in Janurary so I don't think the problem would be from it by I really don't know. Anyway, I have been having some serious issues this last week. I have been stuck a lot more, I have even been getting stuck on Water and cream Soup. I have been able to get very little down in the last 2 days. Also I been feeling very bloated and my stomach is hard. Oh, FYI, I'm still bathroom regular so i don't think constapation is the problem....lol. Anyone else ever experience any or all of this. Thanks

So what is everyone doing for Thanksgiving? I personally will be sending the hubby and kids two hours away to the in-laws while I relax on the couch, in my PJs, and watch "chick flicks". I knew this surgery had to pay off in some way!

Wow Dizzy! Your story is the exact same as mine. I was banded on the 19th and I as I said I am going through the very same things you are. I found this fourm looking for an answer. Sure hope I can find it.

I was just banded on Nov. 19th and I am not sure what or how this is suppose to feel. Whenever I drink something is feels like it is getting stuck in my chest. Is that normal? Sometimes it takes along time to go away. Any information would be greatly appericiated. Also you need to know that my doctor "filled" the band durning surgery.

Well after waiting fifteen years I was finally banded on Nov. 19th. Now I am wondering if I made a mistake. I live in Houston and my doctor is one of only a few that actually "fills" the band during surgery. Since surgery I have not been able to get very much down including water. The gas in my stomach is killing me and the bloating is terrible. When am I going to feel normal again?
