I Feel Horrible

[nicola 25]

Hey guys, I had a fill on Monday and I haven't been able to keep much down, but I figured I was doing too much and decide to wait a while in case ther were some swelling, but for the past two days I can't keep anything down not even Water I would throw up froth, spit and whatever else I try to get down along with serious discomfort.i called my doc and he told me to take small sips of water and call him in the am if I still feel the same way, because the Band might be too tight. I did some research and found out it could be Band Slippage. But my doc say that's not the problem. Should I call my doc back now?.....I'm scared.....HELP!!!!

Docs are there for a reason, and so are ER's.....I would rather go to the ER and have the exray done to make sure it's in place and ease my mind than to worry and make it worse...

No, it is probably too tight. i would get some Fluid taken out asap, otherwise you may become dehydrated.

You are definitely too tight. You should never not be able to pass water!! I spent one night spitting my saliva into a cup and it was one of the most miserable nights of my life.

Your Dr should get you in right away for an unfill. This is an emergency situation.

Yes too tight - not a slip. But if you haven't been able to keep any Water down for a couple of days then you can become dehydrated which is an amergency. You should go to the ER, hopefully someone there will be able to do an unfill. At the very least they can get you onto an IV and get some Fluid into you.

Thank you guys for your input. I went to the Er the next am and they give me fluids and my dr took 2cc out and I immediately felt much better I guzzled so much Water after that it tasted like steak. Again thank you for all your advice.

You need to go have fill removed from your band. These are symptoms of being too tight. It's extremely important that you not get dehydrated.

dear newbie, i have been banded 4 yrs. sounds like you are toooooo tight.....call dr. and tell him you are miserable...fill withdrawal shouldn't cost you anything if you can return 5 business days...i have had such a wonderful/ horrible time with my band...burping, vomiting if i eat more than 3 ozs of food...best of luck and health to you.
