I finally called the Dr!



Recommended Posts

I called the Dr's office a few minutes ago...They said what I am experiencing is NOT Normal! theyare going to schedule me for an Upper GI to find out if the band has slipped.

If the band slipped and that is the problem I will be going back into surgery to have it replaced.

If the band did not slip then I will be having an endoscopy to see whats happening with my esophagus!

I haven't heard when my Upper GI is...but I will keep you all posted!

UUUgggghhhhh! Why me???

I haven't eaten a real meal since 2 Fridays ago.. Almost 2 weeks that I have eaten a good meal. I am regurgitating, gurgling, and it hurts to eat! I threw up last night (1/2 a freeze pop)! I am weak and not feelin right; I know something is not right So I finally called the Dr. again.

MInd you I have nothing in my band-NO FLUID! It is completely deflated and I still have trouble!

I had an Upper GI before surgery! It wasn't too bad. Just the Barium was DISGUSTING! LOL...

I am just scared! Trying to be strong for everyone...including myself! But just SCARED!

Hope everything turns out ok!! I had an endo before surgery and an upper GI after surgery. It was kinda cooling watching the liquid go through and seeing where everything was placed. Good luck and let us know what happens!
