  3. I would make an appointment with your doc. and get some of the Fluid taken out. That was happening to me- I ended up going to a gastroentronogist to see what was going on with me. I had all of my fill taken out - I ended up stretching out my pouch and needed to be unfilled for a few months to help it settle down to normal. Please call your doc. Alli
  4. Hi. My name is Alllie and I had my surgery in June of 2003. I started at 300 and I lost 120 pounds with in 2 years. Things were going great. I was looking good, feeling good... then I went and had a fill - I guess it was too tight - I started throwing up bile in my sleep, couldn't even recline without burping up nasty stuff. I refused to go to the doc for a while- because I wanted to keep losing weight. When I finally went back- it seems as if I had turned my esphogaus into a baby stomach. That meant that I had a stomach in my esphogaus, the band stomach and then the regular stomach. They took all the Fluid out of the fill - I started eating like a wild woman- seriously - with in a month- I think that I gained 20 pounds. So - Over the next 2 and a half years- I have been filled and unfilled so many times. Sometimes I can eat whatever, whenever. I'm back to being filled at 2.8 - and haven't lost anything with in a few months. My weight is back up to 280 and I feel like such a failure. I didn't tell many people that i was getting this surgery- and I'm glad that I didn't - due to this. I'm wondering if anyone has been in a situation similiar to mine and what they have done to help get back on track. Thanks Allie
