Anyone else have this problem?
jenmonster13 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Does anyone out there have the mucous problem? My husband can't seem to swallow excess saliva or even thin mucous build up. After a fill it is even worse...twice now he's had to go back and have the fluid that was just added taken back out because he was unable to keep water down and throws up a ton of mucous with the water. Ideas? Thanks! -

I think he is at 5.5cc now. He has already lost 110 pounds and I watch him throw back up about 1/2 the food he eats, but then he gets a fill anyway!!! I'm at 6.25cc, but don't throw up anything unless I try to eat too fast. He still thinks he doesn't have enough restriction, but he can only keep 1/2 of what he eats down...I think his restriction is fine and he should start to exercise!!! -

Hi and welcome. My husband and I are also doing this together. He was banded in 11/08 and me in 12/08. So far so good. He's down 35 pounds and I'm down 16. I have all the health problems and he doesn't just like you. Good luck to both of you! -

Hi there. I had my lap band with Dr Chua and company at Sinai on 12/9/08. I just got my first "fill" today. Good luck with everything and let me know if you have questions or whatever. Jen -
Hello to all. I was banded on 12/9/08. All incisions are healed and I have no pain. I am REALLY hungry, though. I have a fill scheduled on 1/3/09, and am hopeful that will help. I lost 10 pounds while on liquids and am on a general diet now. Anyone with tips or hints?
