I have been super tight the past 2 weeks or so to the point where I get stuck or throw up often daily...

I thought that I was too tight since it is time for my TOM and that could very well be but I'm getting tired of the tightness. I can only eat Soup or liquids for Breakfast and lunch but usually around dinner time my band loosens up to the point where I can eat some solid food.

I suppose I am also under a lot of stress right now with my job and other things that are going on in my life, I'm just getting so tired of the tightness and dont have time for an unfill since I work nights and sleep during the day. I'm also getting to the point where I almost regret getting the band.

Thanks for the opportunity to get my feelings out...I dont dare tell my husband cuz then he'll say something like what a waste of money bla bla bla..... :unsure:

If your getting sick daily, maybe you should go to your doctor to get a slight unfill. I was overfilled last week (got a fill on 3-7) and after a few days of getting sick, I went to my doctor and had them removed 1/2 cc. After that I felt much better. Now this week, I feel like I maybe a little tight, but it's also my TOM, so I'm hoping that's it. Otherwise, I'll head to the office this week for another slight unfill.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
