  1. 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.

    Well, bad news today. New doctor did an xray w barium and my band is eroded. Very sad, and scared about surgery.:-( He will do an endoscopy to confirm but he seems pretty sure this is the case.
