Hi guys. Need your help with this one.
I have been banded for almost 2 years and had the strangest issue come up. I awoke a couple nights ago feeling Dizzy and like I might throw up. Also my whole stomach felt swollen and particularly around my port area felt soar like someone gave me a good punch to the gut. I am able to get liquids down but solid or even mushy foods make the swelling even worse. I am also getting chills and just feel dreadful. Now it is almost that "time of month" but I have not really had issues due to that before with the band.
I can only lie on my back to try and sleep since any pressure on my stomach is really uncomfortable.
I'm not throwing up at all, but in the 2 years of having the band I have never thrown up or had the experience of food getting stuck.
Any ideas on what might be going on?
Thanks for your help in advance!!
Sigh! I'm just at a loss here and can't get to a doctor until another day unless I go to an emergency room.
