an upper GI might be needed to see if it slipped i had to have one because i was getting very hard stabbing pains in my chest when i tried to eat. but it turns out with all my regurgitation the area around my band was swollen then Dr left me empty for just under 6 months (not fun) i gained 30 of the 60 i lost and now I have 2cc's back in it and has helped a little but I am still not loosing but not plowing thru food like i was. it is so discouraging to not be like the people in the commercial, but i have to try again. (grrrr) good luck

1.5 Years Post Op And I Am Back At The Starting Line :(
mrfreeze3308 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
when I started this journey I had the best frame of mind and VERY excited about the process. I went down 40 lbs then last summer something happen and I think I got too mind hungry and since then I have been throwing up ALOT and it got to the point that every time I would eat I got stabbing pains in my chest the Dr thought my band had slipped and was sent in for an upper GI (that barroum is very gross). the results came back that it didn't slip but since i was throwing up so much the area around my band was swollen, so the Dr removed my fluid and now I have gained 30 of the 40 lbs i lost and the hunger is so amazingly huge. at this point I am feeling kind of hopeless of being able to get back on track I have been empty for 8 weeks now and the Dr says he wants me to wait for another 4 weeks. even then he couldn't say that he would refill it. -

THANK YOU SOO MUCH to all that responded. since i live alone and dont have a schedule that allows me to go to meetings it is so nice to know I am not alone. today was better all veggies and baked fish. -
