nurseab24 0 Posted September 5, 2010 I got a fill on Thursday, 1cc. I really had lost a lot of restriction but it had been about 2 months since my last fill and I had only lost 3lbs. When I left the office on Thursday I drank some Water right away and it hurt and came back up. Me being the stubborn and stupid person that I am figured, oh well it will loosen up!! Ha ya right. Anyway it is now Sunday and I can't drink any liquids, tea water etc... I am able to eat a very small amount of mushies, but Fluid will not stay down at all. Has this every happened to anyone, it just seems like the fluid is so thin it comes back up. I did call the doctor on call today and he said to give it another 24-48 hours. My opinion is that he just doesn't want to have to come in for an unfill this holiday weeked. Any suggestions would be helpful cause I am THIRSTY!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BetsyB 9 Posted September 5, 2010 My doctor's rule is to notify him if more than 8 or so hours elapse without the ability to drink Fluid.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cocoabean 430 Posted September 5, 2010 Can you suck on ice chips to get any Fluid down? Be aware of the symptoms of dehydration and be ready for a trip to the ER or urgent care if things don't improve. Symptoms: dizziness headache dark urine (may have a strong odor) inability to urinate dry mouth and nose weakness nausea and vomiting Don't mess around with it. If you start feeling any of the above, either call your doctor back or go get some fluids put in! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
