Too tight?

[mirech 1]

I haven't had a fill since about 2.5 months because I was at "restriction" however, in the past 2-3 weeks I've noticed that it's been getting tighter. It's been getting harder for me to hold down any food Is this possible? My band got tighter within time? I have seen the doctor though withink this time and I've been ok but I know I'm at the point where I feel they have to get some out so I can "tolerate" food. Anybody had this problem and does anyone know why?

Call your doc just to be on the safe side. That can be a sign the band slipped. You are probably just fine, but I'd make the call just to be sure.

After I reached 6cc's - each time I would lose ten pounds I had to have 1 cc taken out because I was too tight....I know - that is a little backwards but that is how it worked wth me too.

I got a fill and then nearly 5 weeks later had to go for an unfill because I got too tight all of a suddan. It is weird but happens sometimes. It can be because of stress etc.

Thanks everyone! I did go to the dorctor and took out 1 cc. Not sure why my band got tight. She said perhaps stress, or something got stuck in my bad.. who knows. I feel much better. I started to feel dehydrated. That is not a good feeling. But the good news is that I lost 20 lbs. in 1 month so I have 10 lbs. more to lose. So excited.!!!! Finally, seeing the results I wanted from the lap band.

I have the SAME problem... I got a fill about a month ago and it was WAY to tight so they took out .5 cc and i was ok for like 2-3 weeks and now i am so tight i cant keep anything but mushies and liquids down.... So tomorrow I am going to go have a swallow test done and then hopefully some removed

These posts have been so helpful... I thought it was weird that over time I would become too full (w/o a band adjustment) but according to some of you, that's what was happening. I have felt miserable for two weeks. I have an appointment tomorrow and I hope they take something out.

I know, I was so confused this last time because I hadn't gotten a fill in like three months. But now I know!!! We just have to becareful. My doctor also told me that during your mentrual period it might get a little bit tighter because of the Water gain. Good luck everyone and let's keep loosing lbs. until we reach our goal.!!!
