i had a fill 2 days ago and after it i was fine. drinking Water and cup of coffee, i ate a hearty Soup. yesterday morning i was able to have a Protein shake and some other kinds of foods. but come 2pm i could not keep anything down. not even a 1/2 tablespoon of mashed potato's last night. i brought it up and was in pain for hours. this was a different kind of pain then the kind you have when you can not pass something. this morning, as a test, i took a sip of Water. i can not stop burping which is what happens when i can not pass something. this does not feel right.

Sounds like you have post-fill swelling. Mine often hits a day or two later, too.

If you're concerned, give your doctor a call. Mine encourages us to try to wait it out--as long as we're able to get fluids in.

I'd stick with fluids---and in tiny amounts. If you really have no success with that, then I would give the doc a call to see what s/he would like you to do.

thank you so much for replying. i am so scarred right now. i wish there was a chat room here where you can talk to people in real time. i am not even keeping Water down now. i am going to just show up at the dr's this morning and hope they can help me right away. Diana

I agree that is sounds like post-fill swelling. I've only recently gotten excellent restriction and after the fill that got me there I had a good amount of swelling for about 3 days. Although mine began almost immediately. I would still let your doc know just to be on the safe side. :w00t:

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
