I am 5 months post-op! I have a 10cc band. I got my last fill about 3 months ago and I have lost a lot of weight had no problems what so ever eating! This last 3 weeks I have been regurgitating everyday sometimes everytime I eat. I feel like my food is not going down like it suppose to and I end up regurgitating it back up, it's not a violent regurgitating but I know this is not normal. Sometimes it's hard for me to drink anything without it coming back up. I thought I had Acid Reflux or either I am eating too fast not chewing enough. And I get the hiccups and start to burp! I have health insurance my husbands job changed from Aetna to Blue Cross Blue Shield. I am waiting on my new insurance card to come in so I can go see my Dr. Any advise anyone

Sounds like you're too tight

Stress can trigger sudden tightness of the band

Maybe call your insurance and get your policy # and give that to your doc instead of waiting for the card to come in. When it arrives then just fax it to your doc's office

I'm happy to say I have my group number for Blue Cross Blue Shield, so hopefully I can get in to see my Dr tomorrow! God is good. I tried to eat and still have not been able to keep nothing in me without coming up! Not to mention I am so thirsty but can't hold Water or anything else down.. God help me please, in Jesus name I pray..

Thanks so much, I am going to call him at 8:00am to go in! This is not right, I feel like I have to burp everytime I drink a little of anything! It's so uncomfortable and I'm so concerned.

I am going to call him at 8am in the morning! I feel so uncomfortable and feel like I have to burp and I regurgitate everytime I try to drink anything or eat anything I am so concerned, I feel stuck and I shouldn't feel like this from siping on Water the eventually comes right back up. Praying morning comes quick I'm so thirsty but can't keep anything down.

I agree please call your doctor. Even if you have to do self pay of wait to be reimbursed your health is to important to put off.

      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.
