Band Feels Too Tight???????



Recommended Posts

Kay here's what happened I can't really eat any kind of amount of food but I can drink Water. It feels like my band is to tight but the last time I had an ajustment I had my band unfilled because I was experiencing the same thing that time. But I really want to know if this has happened to anyone else. Months after an ajustment my band gets tighter I'm confused could it be signs that my band is close to slipping? Help please!?

Hello! First I would tell you to see your doc! It is strange that the tightness came virtually out of nowhere! But I don't think I'm too worried. For sure though, you should NOT live with a band so tight that you can only keep liquids down. Good luck!

This happened to me twice. I got a fill in November and had good restriction and then all of sudden my band got so tight I could barely even get Water down. I went about 5 days on hit fluids thinking it was just swollen until I finally called my Dr. Then I got an emergency unfilled and the prn said it happens sometime. Then about a month after that my band got tight again over night and I went in for another unfilled. It's so strange when it happens, so trust me call your Dr.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
