    Weight gain after gallbladder surgery

    My tummy tuck surgeon says I don't need unfilled as he won't be near the band but the nurses where I had my surgery say I do need an unfill. What do you think?

    Alcohol

    Hi, glad to hear someone else drinks beer. No-one told me you can't drink beer so I have been drinking it since I was banded in July 2008. I've not had any problems. I lost 3 stones and only had one fill. Am almost at target weight. Any one else drink beer?
  6. How do you know when you need a fill? Even though my food sticks a lot (BECAUSE OF STRESS) I am quite hungry and can eat a lot.
  7. Hi I was wondering if anybody is very aware of their port. I have actually hit mine against some things and if a child sits on my knee I feel I need to be careful. Sometimes I can feel it sore. Is this normal? Also I feel very hungry but my food sticks a lot, like every day if I am not really careful. The dietitian said it was because I was stressed and I think that is true, but its awful when I am so hungry. Should I be going for another fill. I have only had one since I was banded in July. I have lost three stones but nothing in the last two months.

    My 1st stuck food

    Hey, for a couple of weeks there every day my food was getting stuck and I don't feel that I have that much restriction. The dietition told me it was because I was stressed and I think that is true. It was no particular food. Just any food. It is so frustrating as you can't eat for a long time after and the only thing that helps is to drink coke or make myself sick. I think I need another fill but don't know if I should because the food is getting stuck all the time. Also is there anyone else who is very aware of their port. Mine can be actually sore sometimes and I have knocked it against some things. I haven't heard of this happenong to anybody else.

    When food gets stuck: Papaya Enzymes!

    I bought papaya enzymes in liquid form. It didn't work. I suffer from terrible panic attacks and twice the food got stuck. The only relief I got was to make myself sick . I thought I was going to die. It was awful. I don't know what I would do if I was by myself when this happened. Thank God my daughter was with me.
