I got stuck like never before yest on bite of scrambled eggs. - the problem- is that I did vomit- like one violent deep burp just once but down in my gut- but with it, the worse shooting pain that went all the way from my back to my arms and fingertips ? a few minutes later I was able to finish Breakfast n been sore above my port for most of the day. Took some tylenol and just had a salad which went down afully easy? Could i have popped my band? the pain is gone, just a little sore, but i was bit sore from Fri work out at gym.. no other symptoms except the salad went down with NO fight and that surprized me. I felt like I had craked my back,,, could it have been gas or a muscle spasm? anyone?

I've not heard of this happening before, but I'm no doctor. I've had my band for around 4 years; the first thing I would do is go on a soft diet. You don't know what you did and you don't want to inadverdently hurt your stomach. Get on the phone and call your sureons office and ask if you should be seen. Good luck and take care!

I agree see what the dr. suggests. I'd go back to soft foods or liquids for a few days too while you try to figure it out. Best of luck to you!

      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.
