No restriction!

I go in on the 11th of September for another fill, but I am having another sort of small issue . Sense I got my last fill I have had some trouble breathing. Not really bad or anything but still enough to concern me. It's sort of like someone is Squeezing my lungs. It might not have anything to do with the band but I don't know what else could be causing it. -

Crazy!!! I can only hope that the band will work good for me! And yes it is a struggle sometimes , but it is all worth it ! -
It happens to me all the time !! I'm a glutton for punishment!

I was banded on May 30 2013 and I been having a lot of problems with food getting stuck in my chest and it hurts. I have not had my first fill yet I am supposed to get it on the 10 th of July. Question 1: Is this normal ? Question 2: have I slipped ?

Food getting Stuck
reneeperdue replied to reneeperdue's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think I have been eating to fast and maybe I'm not chewing as good as I should be. I'm not sure if my Dr. Put any fluids in during surgery or not. But thanks for the feedback and ill try slowing down and chewing more -
I am having problems with things getting stuck in my chest, is that normal or have I had a slip? I have not had my first fill yet.

I am having a little bit of problems out of one of my incisions it has leaked a little since the day of surgery on May 30 but now it leaks even worse . It does not have an odor ! And it leaks clear liquid . Should I be worried?
-
Saw the Dr. Today and he put me on antibiotics and I go back on July 10 to hopefully get my first adjustment/Fill .

I called my Dr. And they said as long as is was not leaking milky yellow or green and as long as it didn't smell that it was fine. She said to just keep cleaning it with alcohol and putting fresh gauze on it and it would be fine until I go in on the 19th.

Thanks everyone !!!
-
I think I will get my first fill on the 19th so y'all let me know how it goes! Cause I am a little nervous myself.
