2 Years after surgery



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery almost two years ago, may 19th will be two years. My last fill was in february 2010. I was doing fine up until this year in feb. Out of no where it was so hard for me to drink and eat. When I did drink and eat sometimes I would throw up. I was scared that maybe my band slipped. I want to the dr and they did the xray. They said the band was fine but the tech said it looked like my band was to tight. How can that be...I havent had a fill in over a year and all of a sudden it gets tight. My dr wont take anything out of me and some days I am really srruggling to eat something. Has anyone experienced this????? I could see if I went and had a fill and it was to tight but I havent had one in over a year. What could be going on???

I have had sudden tightness sometime after a fill, but not as long as you. My dr. took some Fluid out and I was fine. I would go back to your doc. and describe what's been going on. I can't imagine why he won't take a bit out.

Could it maybe have partially slipped and they just can't see it on the x-ray? Very strange indeed. Personally I would talk to your doctor again and fully describe what is going on with you and your band
