Not Sure If This Is Serious Or Not...

Hey bandsters!

SO... i got a fill about 2 weeks ago and was doing pretty good. However, yesterday and more so today I have been pretty nauseous... its wierd because it almost comes in waves... i will be pretty good and barely noticing it and the next minute i will have a bucket next to me cause i feel like something is about to come up. The thing is that if I did throw up the only thing that would come up is liquid because I haven’t eaten anything today. I actually have food next to me but I can’t eat it because of this nausea.

Now the WIERDEST thing is that I’ll be having this nausea feeling and then my stomach will randomly do a rumble growl type thing and the nausea will be gone for about 30 seconds. I really haven’t eaten much in the last few days because I really haven’t been hungry. I had a bag of popcorn last night (that lasted me a few hours before I ate it all) but that’s really been it.

I have no idea what’s going on...so if someone could PLEASE give me any idea I would greatly appreciate it. I am only 18 and don’t know anyone personally with the band so I don’t really know what’s normal/not normal or fine/bad.

I figure I should just go to liquids or mush for a few days and see if it goes away so don’t bother saying that lol I’m more worried if this is serious or not..

Please and thank you for any help/advice/input

background: i got my band on december 28th 2011. i believe i have 5 ccs in my band currently and i have lost 40 pounds. (idk if that will help or anything)

It may not be band related at all, you could be getting sick. Especially if it's been 2 weeks since your fill. If it were ME I'd wait a couple of days to see if it goes away, then if not I'd call the doc. Try to keep yourself hydrated.

thanks!

i thought about if it was band related or not. the main reason i thought it was is because the pain is in a certain area (right below my bust line) which is pretty close to the band (i think?) and also because when i do have a "hunger" stomach growl the feeling goes away for a few seconds.. who knows it could be something unrelated to the band but i was just worried :/

If something worries you, you really should call your doctor. Good luck!

That's true, if you're really concerned, I would call your doc. No sense stressing out about it! :-)
