I would love to hear some great stories from people who've had their bands for a long time. I'd like to get an idea of what the future may hold for me,. Thanks in advance for sharing

On Tuesday I was filled and by Wednesday I couldn't keep Water down. By today, Saturday, it's worse. I'm sipping water but am so thirsty I wind up gulping and it get stuck. Dr was supposed to call hours ago. Any advice would be appreciated

Hi, I had a fill last week and am really restricted. REALLY RESTRICTED. A day or so after the fill, I started coughing and gurgling at night in my sleep. What could this be? Am I overfilled? Thankx
-
Thanks going tom, probably going to let them take some out. Too bad even though it's a pain I love this much restriction.

Hi All, I had a fill last week and have been feeling progressively stuck. I barely keep water down. I have been coughing a weird cough at night and have occasional back pain. Do you think my band is too tight? I started happening a day or two after my last fill. Thanks for your input

Next week I'm off mushies. I was thinking of going on the Jenny Craig diet. In the past I lost weight very slowly on that diet. Since I'm still losing slowly now, I'm thinking how could it hurt. Any thoughts or experiences to share? Thanks

I recently pulled my back and vicodin is the only medication that seems to help. Do you think taking one dose at night will hurt my band?

Port site pain 1 month post-op
dejageel replied to betrthnever's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I too have pains that come and go around the port site. I was worried about infection. Don't know. The incision feels hard and then right underneath it is the port and sometimes I get sharp pains and then sometimes I dont. UGHH! -
Hi all, I was banded 2/27. I have been having some shooting pain around my port site and right above it. I went to the doctor today and he sent me for bloodwork to rule out infection. I have no fever and the pain comes and goes. Is it possible to have an infection? What will they do for it? Thanks

Why am I so hungry, 5 days post op
dejageel posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Banded five days ago and am still hungry? Could I need an ajdustment already or does this pass? I've only been taking in about a cup and a half of mushie food per day. Will I feel better after I move on to more solid food? I also asked doctor about adjustment. He said everyone is different. Can't give me a time when I'll need my first adjustment. I was banded 2/27. Thanx all -
