Unfill Needed???

[Missy05.29.12 13]

Until last week I have had absolutely no problems. After my first fill (3 cc) I had pretty good restriction (at least in my opinion). I had lost 15 pounds in 4 weeks...and was feeling and doing great. Went in for my next appointment and had 1 cc added. The first 4 days were fine. No problems. Then all of a sudden I started having stuck episodes (no PBing though...thank goodness). After each time I felt lots of pain in my chest, gurgling in my throat, and became sweaty. After sitting, walking, taking off my bra (sorry, TMI), waiting...some times I could continue with a little more consumption...sometimes I was not able to eat...I hurt so bad I would not risk trying to put anything else in my mouth.

I'm so confused. Sometimes I am great, sometimes not...but I never had any issues before my second fill.

Do I need an unfill? Is it possible I hit my sweet spot with my very first fill and my second was too much? I'm so confused...

Help!!!

After each fill it can take time to relearn how and what to eat.

Make sure that you are following the rules carefully. Small bites, chew thoroughly, wait between bites etc. If you are still having problems then take a look at what you are eating. Maybe you are trying to eat foods that will no longer agree with your band. Experiment a little e.g

You might find that dry white chicken breast gets stuck but nice moist thigh meat doesn't.

If you are trying to eat steak or pork chops you might want to try swapping those for burgers and moist roasts or pot roasts or fooded cooked in a crockpot.

If you after doing all this you are still having problems then maybe you do need a little taken out.
