I am having the same symptoms,nausea and lots of mucas at night and slept sitting in the chair last night. Needless to say i am now severly sleep deprived and still nauseous. I decided to call and speak to a nurse at my band Dr. office and she thinks I need a little unfill. I think I held off on calling(had my fill last mon.morn) because that's what I knew they would say. I was banded on Feb.5th 09 and have had small fills each month since then. I have also has 2 previous small unfills. It seems as though my stomach is very sensitive. We all want that "magic" fill,and i am grateful for the 70lbs I have lost.It is definatly not fun to feel bad.I even had to miss work on a few occasions. Thanks for listening!:thumbup::frown:

Just a quick Hello!!! My name is COLEEN as well. You don't see this spelling very often,so when I do I always feel a "connection" Good luck on your journey,I was banded Feb 5th!

:wub:I seem to have a hard time with fresh strawberries of all things.No matter how well I chew! Anyone else?

I really like the Yoplait lite yougurt.They are a little larger and have 100 calories.

so ok,this may be a dumb question,but can you eat popcorn? I was banded on Feb.5th and have had 1 fill . Just curious,I haven't had any(YET). Thanks

How is food getting stuck,my Dr.says liquids only for 2days after fills

Thanks all for the reassurance! I feel much better this morning!

:tt1:Hey all,I had my first fill yesterday and had 4cc put in.It felt very wierd,and then I had to drink 3 small cups of water before going home,ell,after a few sips I started getting pain sooo bad in my upper chest and I could burp sort of. I tried and tried but it almost felt like I was short ofbreaath and I couldn't even swallow my own saliva! I had to have 1.5 cc removed! I'm so bummed! Has anyone else had that experience???:thumbup:

Hey there! I am also a Feb.5th bandster. I too can only have clear liquids plus my protein drinks for 3 more weeks. It gets frustrating but then I try to think about the BIG picture! I had my 1 week post op follow up today and everythings good. I return to work next Tuesday on light duty. I hope you all are good too! YEAH TO US!!!!!!!!!

I haven't heard from any Feb.5th folks since before surgery.How's everyone doing?:thumbup:
