I got my third fill yesterday and drank the Water he gave me with no problem. I got home and had broth for dinner and are about 7 or 8 spoonfuls before I was very full. I went to bed almost in tears because of the discomfort I was feeling. This morning, I woke up and drank about 2 oz of water before driving to school. I had to pull over to throw up, and then I had to throw up again as I was walking into the bldg. that was about 3 hours ago and I'm still very uncomfortable and constantly feeling like I need to throw up. I haven't even been able to drink any Protein Shake. Is this normal?!

I wouldn't call it normal, but its not unheard of to be tight after an adjustment for a few days. ( vomiting should never be considered normal ) Sometimes, you read on here where it happens up to a couple of weeks after the adjustment. Since you were able to drink "with no problem" at the office, It MAY be just some irritation/swelling from getting the fill. While you certainly don't want to risk becoming dehydrated, it may get better by this afternoon/evening to allow you to drink Clear Liquids. Best wishes.

when I had my 1st fill last week, the doc said to me "if you throw up in the parking lot or in the next 24 hrs on liquids come right back in". So based on what the doc told me, you should at least call him to see what he says.

I would say it doesn't sound "normal" to me. You may need a slight unfill, but I would call the doctor. Good luck!

Thank you for all of your advice I went today and had an unfill of .5 and feel so much better!!! It had gotten to the point where I was vomiting my own saliva; it was bad!

      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.
