Dunatl 0 Posted December 18, 2005 I was banded on October 21st and every thing was going super. Lost 42 pounds, schedule to go for my first fill on Jan 6th, was able to eat anything. Then Friday night, my wife made me a pork chop and I while I was eating it, a piece got stuck. Since then, I can drink liquids but I have a hard time keeping anything hard down without PBing. I figure one of three circumstances has occurred. 1. There is still blockage from the meat.< /span> 2. The area around the band has swollen 3. My band has slipped. Any thoughts or suggestions? Also, if my band has slipped how can I or the doctor tell and what is the procedure for correcting the problem when a patient has yet to get their first fill? Anyone who has gone through a similar experience, your thoughts and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Road Queen 0 Posted December 18, 2005 After a pb, you should only have liquids for 24 hours, then a day of mushies. Your insides were irritated from the pb, then trying to eat again has probably irritated them more and caused additional swelling. Try going on liquids for a couple of days. Call your dr on Monday and talk to him. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
