    Stomach Problems

    Help!! I have a APL (Advanced Performance Large) band which holds 14cc's. The band was filled with 3cc at the time of my operation. Six weeks later I received my first fill 3.5cc's. About a day after my fill, I started having have very bad stomach cramps. It felt like I was full of gas; however, evething I tried ie: Gas X, TUMS, lacatives, ect, did not work. I even have a problem burping. After about a week, I called the doctor and went in and she took out 3cc's. Everything returned to normal; however, I had no restriction. I waited a week and then went in for another fill. She put in 3cc's; however, a day later the stomach problems returned. My doctor told me the first time that if I had anymore problems, I should have a swallow test. I don't have a problem swallowing so I don't know why I need the test. Has anyone out there had this kind of problem and if so what should I do?:smile:
