Unfortunately, if you can't swallow anything, the only thing that is going to help is an unfill.

It's important you do this immediately, too. Dehydration is very dangerous and bands that are too tight can lead to very serious complications.

Good luck.

I've been told that the more u lose the fat around the stomach burns as well so the opening is looser. I got my 3rd fill yesterday and am having th he same problem. I am going to stay on a liquid diet like I was post-op the next 3 days and see if I can handle puree after that. If not, I'm going to the drs to remove some of the filling. I was also told some ppl get swelling when they get a filling so it might just be that. Wait a couple of days doing a liquid diet to see how u feel. If u cant hold down liquids then u should take the 3 hr trip. Best of luck to us both.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
