I am done with it, OP glad your doing well

Dehydration is not only a valid ER visit it could possibly lead to admission. Not misuse at all.

Hey there sorry that you had a tough time with your band and dehydration. To be honest from what you posted I don't see where he did anything wrong. The advise to go to the ER was sound advise. Him being in a solo practice I don't see why he doesn't have a PA or Nurse trained to do Emergent unfills though. Glad it turnedmout ok for you but next time if he can't get you in in am day and your getting that dehydrated I would go to the ER

I Am going threw somewhat the same thing. I was banded 3 days before you and waiting in my third fill. I can eat almost 2 cups. My Doctor doesn't seem to think I am doing damage. My instructions from him was to eat a cup of dense protein and I should be full. That is how he evaluates my fills -
Please help..strange pains.

I know this is old but I have these exact pains and are relieved by eating or drinking. -
I am no expert new to the band but i believe its that maybe some of the food is already passing into the lower stomach as you eat so its not all just sitting in the pouch.
-
I am knew to the band but it sure sounds like you are there. Congrats on getting it back going again:thumbup:
