Hi I had a fill yesterday after 3 years. 1/2ml. Today I cannot keep even liquids down and the band feels very uncomfortable. Have tried to contact a doctor but it is late Friday and no one available to speak to or take out some of the fill. Could not sleep last night as liquid kept refluxing, thought it would ease off today but not so far. Manage to perhaps keep 1/2 pint of liquid down during the day, Water and tea in small sips. Should I worry or is it just swelling from the fill that will go down in time?

He took out 1\4 ml of the 1/2 ml fill I had on Thursday. Now I feel slightly under-filled and will need to go for another fill in January. It is all fine tuning and we are all so different. Just hope I have enough restriction to start loosing again. I think maybe taking out 1/8 or 2/8 of a mill would have solved my problem but I did not feel that way when I could not even keep water down, very unpleasant and uncomfortable. Hope that helps.

Thank you so much for the advice. Managed to reach my doctor today and he has taken a tiny amount out and it has made all the difference…I was so thirsty by this morning. The journey goes on. I expect I would have lost a whole 8kg in a week with the tightness but I would have been dead from thirst.
