Got my 2nd fill yesterday morning



Recommended Posts

Right now I am in hour 4 of being stuck on a Protein smoothy. I got stuck this morning on this same smoothy so I put it in the refridgerator thinking I should be able to have it for dinner. I just drank juice all day. When I came home I drank the smoothy and no matter what I do I remain stuck. Papaya pill for the first time is doing nothing. I have vomited several times, but it is doing no good..

Since he only added 1 cc for a total of 4 cc's now, I really was not expecting this.

Yuck! If I were you I'd call him in the morning and see if he recommends a small unfill.

It is 1 AM and I have been vomiting for 8 hours now. I called the doctor's office and his answering service is paging him. I can't do this until the morning.

I just spoke to the doctor. I am going to meet him at the office at 7 am. Hope I can hold on for 6 more hours.

Oh, let us know what happens. I just had to have my lapband adjusted with major surgery last Friday. I was like you, but could get liquids down. My major problem was that I coughed all night long. And, vomited phelem. I then started not allowing anything to stay in my band. I hope that he is able to help you before it gets to where I was. By the way, I feel great now, but it has been a week of Clear Liquids and now a week of full liquids before starting on real food again. Good luck. Karen

I just got out of bed after sleeping in exhaustion all day. The doctor did meet me and it took him only a minute to remove all the Fluid and check that I could now drink some Water. I was not stuck, but had apparently experienced enough swelling after the fill to completely close up. I am still swollen and can drink only clear fluids for a couple of days. It will be a week before I can eat regular food again.

The good news is that I lost 5 pounds overnight, but most of that is probably from dehydration. It is going to be 4 weeks before I go back again, so last couple of weeks I will be running on will power alone.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
