it been alittle more then a year and i have done good, but now i am stuck, i been 180 for a couple months now, what should i do ?

both my parents want me to take out the band, they say tht it i cousing me to be sick, i know i got a hernia, it was probly from throughing up, but i had a virus this week and last week, and i dont know if it because they are ingorent or they really believe this, Linda my moms gf says the plastic is killing you and its rotting insude your body, and she always saying take it out. and mom just goes along with it she say ever since i got the band i have been sick, i feel like they are ganging up on me worse then peer pressure becuz they are my parents and your soppose to lesson to them, but i dont think it the band thts making me sick i think it the hernia and maybe gallstones, for now until friday i am stuck home taking VIKES, (pain killers) and some other meds so i dont through up, mom has the virus i had, linda got something, wut ever it is those two i have dont got it. thank you god. anyway im feelin an little upset i dont know wut to do, i mean friday im asking the doctor and telling her about what my parents are saying and maybe the doctor can tlk to them, but there stuck in thier ways

im not given up so yah i went to the doc she said yes i got a hernia they arnt going to fix it, im just going to have to take pills for the pain and the reflux.. tht seems werd to me, i guess pills every day, and my doc filled my band agian

im going friday my mom and linda never go to the doctors with me, i ask them too but they dont wanna, my mom dosent even take my 16 yr old sis to the doctors i do, im in pain i m sure its from the hernia i looked it up online, hopefully i can get it fixed soon, i cant wait till friday, i threw up again b4, i ate some soggy ceral, and i felt like i had a wieght in my chest and then i was running to the BR, i cant keep going like this, and idont wanna lose my band, i love my band, i hate this pain.

ok so my mom gose to the doctor we have the same doctor and tells him w.e she said, and he said that im to young to have the band, but get this he is the 1 who told me to get it done,

i was sick last week had a flu i went to the hospital and they said nothing was wrong... called me to tell me i got a herna, i think it is from throughing up i dont know why but i get food stuck alot and to releave myself i feel the need to through up. i never stuck my finger in my mouth i dont have to. my chest get tight and i just get sick. now i dont know if thts the reason y i have a herna but i am tired of gettin dick all the time i would like to go 1 day with out havin to run to the bathroom. i had my band empty and i was still getting sick. i didnt tell my doc yet but i have been thinkin about removal. has any one ever gottin a herna from throughing up B4 can u get it from tht , and how u fix a herna, give me somef feed back ppl ,

well yah im going to have to ask, cuz i wont let anyone else to take it out but my doctor tht put it in, im upstate on vaca for now i go home in 8 days, i'll go when i get home, if it gets worse ill go home sooner.

i was glocu... 500 mg 3 time a day i gained alot of my wieght wen i started the diabetes meds even with the insulin. but with the band i use alot less meds so in guess its easier to loss wieght on less meds.

:eek: the doc think there is a small leak in the port, she says we can fill it every month and then let the liquid come out slowly and refill it or we can go back and put a new one in. which one should i do and why?

the doctor didnt say tht the ooze is bad she said it just water, um my insurance pays for every thing,

this has nothing to do with the band, but i need help, last tuesday i had 4 wisdom teeth removed. the pain was subsidding, until my mom punched me in the face, dont think bad about her i think she has bypoloar disease, anyway after she hit me i have been in so much pain, im constantly taking pain kills, they work but i dont think i should be in this much pain. anyone have thier wisdom teeth taken out, how long with the pain, did you get like flaps of skin over your teeth. my upper teeth are healed but i got these bumps on one on each side they are hard about the size of a quarter. idk im just in pain.

is any one goig to get thier band lossened for thanks giving, my family has a big party for thanks giving and every 1 eats alot now i am thinking maybe i should get my band lossened for thanksgiving and then fill it after wards. or should i just kepp it filled. im really tight i will only be able to eat like 3 bites of turkey and maybe a bite of pie. my ticker is wrong and i forgot how to make and add a new 1 im now at 215 and loseing anbout 2 pounds a week.

hey i wen tot the sergon the other day. wieghed in i lost 4 pounds. yay! took five weeks to do it. went to get anouther fill. doc says i think you got a leck in your port. she injects die into my port. we saw somthing by the band didnt know if it was from the port or my intestins. so she takes the die out and says if your restriction is less then we are going to swchedule you for sergery. now im not sure if i want to go back under this soon because it took my a couple of weeks to get back to normal. im a slow healer. but its only 2 day after the fill and im already starting to feel a tiny bit less restricted. mybe because the swelling is gone done idk, im going to give it a couple more days and see if the restrition gets any less.

i seem to be more hungry and able to eat more then i was able after my last fill. i guess i am saying i am able to eat more and i more hungry even though i got a fill. the fill was good for about a week or too but after that i feel like i can eat more. like i was eating alot less befor i got this fill. idk. i mean alot less. i can eat a buger and fries i couldnt do tht befor i got the fill. i am trying really hard to control wut i eat. i did loos anouther 5 pounds but tht was because i was really sick and in the hospital and i dont like hospital food lmao. if i was sick more often i'd be so tiny. but any way what do you think.

i have had 2 fill after the unfill. then i went for a 3rd. after the third fill i feel more hungry then with the 2nd fill.

ok after being in the hospital for a week because i had terrible fevers 104.8 most horrible feeling in the world worse then being stabbed. i get home yesterday night. the doctors found nothing wrong that was cause the fevers said just a flu. then they told me i have an enlarge spleen and liver. dont know why. they said maybe from being sick. but tonight i am having some pain upper left side of abdomin, close to the bottom of the ribs. i think thats were you spleen is. its not constint it comes and gose. on a scale from 1-10 10 being the worst its a 6.6. it a bit unconfortable. i dont want to go back to the hospital. might have too. any one else have this problem. the spleen and liver.

being over wieght is bad for you. like from being over wieght i have diabetes an enlarged liver and spleen. and its hard to run around cuz i get out of breath fast. soo i would get banded even if it was accepted by every 1 else evey 1 could sit and be fat unhealthy people and i would be feeling alot better. omg i hate being sick

i'll ask if they checked for mono i know they check for hepititus. they took a chest x ray cat scan of the brain cuz of the fevers being so high. an ultra sound. thats how they found out about the enlarged liver and spleen. told me i have high liver enzymes. they dont know why. told me i could go home. just to drink more liquids and follow up with doc in a week. but last night i had some really bad pain in my back . then it went away and came back agien.

been a while did your doctor ever tell you tht you have an enlarged liver and spleen, what that mean is that bad . can it be treated.

i hvae only 1.2 cc in a 4 cc band im restricted but i need a bit more

i see mine every 6-7 weeks, for fills and i get wieghed, im going agien monday
