What is PBing?

I have the same problem.

I get it in the middle of eating.... not even between bites, I'll eat, feel perfect, then all of a sudden it comes out of nowhere. I go from 0 to ready to throw up.

Its enough to make me want to get this thing taken out.

My concern is that too much PBing will cause my band to slip!! def dont want that to happen!!

OK I need you to be more specific. Do you have slimeing? Do you actually throw up food or throw up slime? Does plain burping help the pain? Is it just a burp with a little something in the back of your throat?

Sorry for the graphic nature but I think PBing could mean different things to different people.

The chewed food mixed with saliva comes back up. Burps dont help...half the time, i feel like its too stuck to burp..

Hi Agnes, I was banded by Dr. Ortiz the week before you. I just had a fill a little more than a week ago and had my first PBing episode and I found out, once I've PBed, I need to way cut back on solids and eat mushies at least the rest of the day....low cal mushies. It seems, once I've PBed my band area is a lot more sensitive and everything gets stuck.

Make sure you slow down, eat small bites, chew well and wait between bites. Be really conscience of how you are eating. I find waiting between bites really helps too. It takes me forever to get 4 oz of meat down now, but it works and I'm not hungry for a long time after that.

I hope you find some relief and everything settles down. If you keep PBing, you need to have a small unfill. You can always go back and have more put in later.

OK my professional (haha, I am a car salesman) opinon is you may be too tight. If I were pbing more than the rare occurance I would have a .5 unfill. I would not risk a slippage just to lose weight faster. I would go with slow and steady instead of risk my band.
