Hersheyskiss21 4 Posted February 23, 2013 I just got my second fill and now have 4 c's..and when I try to eat the food gets stuck so bad I feel like I can't breath. The pain is so awful, I'm chewing the food to applesauce consistency but it's not working...any ideas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maddysgram 6,159 Posted February 23, 2013 eating too fast eating too much too tight???? Did you do just fluids after fill, you might want to try that, but call your Dr first and get their opinion. 3 ☠carolinagirl☠, ♕ajtexas♕ and DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1shauna1 129 Posted February 23, 2013 Maybe it's too much Fluid in your band; some people can only tolerate very small amounts (I can only get .5 cc at a time). Usually when I get a fill I am recommended to slowly work back to solids over a couple of days. I would say, go on liquids for a day to give yourself a chance to adjust, but if you're still having issued, you may need some fluid out. 2 DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! and ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
♕ajtexas♕ 3,771 Posted February 23, 2013 When I take too big a bit and eat too fast that is how I feel. You are starting to feel restriction, so you need to reevaluate your eating. If you are having a hard time keeping Water down the I would say you are too tight. Best thing to do is call your doctor. Also, your band is irritated now so you might need to do 24 hr liquids and 24 hr mushy. Just a suggestion. 2 DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! and ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MiniMi 1,468 Posted February 23, 2013 Ouch. When I've been in this situation I have tried to eat different things and chew to different consistencies. Problem was, I would not wait for my band to calm down in between times. Take 6 hrs off and eat yogurt and Protein shakes. Water your applesauce down and then try again. If it continues then call the dr. I actual enjoy the restriction I feel the first few weeks after a fill. ( once I figured out how to eat that is) Take our words into consideration but you know yourself the best. Call your dr if it feels wrong! 2 CHEZNOEL and ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
