Today I go in for an unfill and then he will refill my band again. I don't know what is going on but my port area is a hurting a little and he thinks something is stuck in it, I wonder if that's possible?

No....I've never had to spit....although I only had my second fill today so lets see if that changes anything. :)

I never needed to spit until after my second fill.........sorry, don't mean to discourage....

Have a great day to all!

I wish I had a cup yesterday in the car. I spit the salavia into papertowels. That was the second time with this fill that I acutally had to pb outside of home. I was miserable trying to keep it in. I made it home and brought the 4 shrimp back up that I devoured. Whhhhhhh I want my shrimp, they were good going down.

I haven't had to do this yet! But yesterday, Had this weird feeling in my throat and pretty soon kinda felt like I was going to throw up (kinda sort of) I went out and spit and the episode was over. Is that what ya'll are talking about?

WOW, I didn't know all of this existed. This is the first I've seen on this subject. I have had two PBs, 6-9 days after a fill. I've slimed as a part of that. After that, I've just stopped eating or drinking. I never thought to spit out my saliva. The thought of having to do this is just gross to me. This just can't be a part of the "normal" existence with my lapband. Please tell me its not so. I've gone for 2 unfills and now know that my fills have to be small and further apart.

I'll get the cups for an emergency, but I sure hope I don't have to use them!

I had my 2nd fill 2 days ago, and have had a terrible time since then. I'm going to try the spitting idea. It never even occured to me that swallowing all the extra spit wasn't doing any good. While reading this thread, I've created a spit cup for myself as I'm trying to get a taco down for lunch.< /span>

:faint: :faint: :faint: One time I took a bit of a vienna sausage type thing from my 4 year old, who just wanted to share with Mommy, and than I felt a little stuck but thought I could drive home. Oh my I was stuck real bad 1/2 home, in my car, in the heat, with my 4 year old in the back seat.:guess When I came to a red light , I pulled over into the left turn lane, I grabbed an old coke cup my teenager left behind and thought it would never stop.:opps2: After that I keep a big 16 to 32 oz coke cup in my car. I have my teen pick up two when he gets his drinks at the gas station. You never know when it will get bad and I do not want it every where.:)

Good luck Brandy... and everyone. I put it off yet another day, but swear I'm going in Monday for a little unfill - I'm just tired of the spitting. I love this site - it's been sooo good to have feedback from everyone and to feel normal.

Hi yall,

I must be even a bigger weirdo. I dont barf, PB, throw up and only occasionally golf ball. However, I have slimed a couple of times over the last 3 years. I must have some kind of rubber esophagus... That cant be a good thing....

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
