problem



Recommended Posts

I am having a problem, 2 weeks ago I had a fill. I was fine and eating well. Then suddenly things began to get stuck, now when ever I eat anything I get sick because it seems to be stuck. Anyone else have this problem before. I am hoping that I just irratated something.

Hi Joanne,

Sorry about the problem. Sounds like you are overfilled. Yes I know it stinks. I was there last month. It was so bad that I couldnt even swallow my own saliva. You need to cvall your doctor and tell him what is going on. He will probally suggest that you go into the emergency room and they will do a swallow test on you to make sure you did not slip and most likely he will either take out all the saline or partial.

When this happened to me I was on my 4th fill. I went from having 2.7 in my band to nothing.... Once I was unfilled I felt a huge relief. I went back to the doctor after 2 weeks and he started over so right now I am 7 months out and I have .6cc in me. But I have not been getting stuck on anything and I an still losing weight. Please get in touch with your doctor and let us know how it went

Good Luck

Vickie

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
