I have a question about restriction. Thanks



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. Here is my quick story. Banded Oct 12th. Felt great! Got first fill Nov 12th felt 3 ccs in a 10 cc band. Felt pretty good for a couple weeks some restriction but not where I would like. 2 weeks into fill became very restricted and gassy, stomach pains, painful burps. I would almost pb or slime on everything. Dr. totally unfilled me and thought possible gall bladder. He was right had emergency gall bladder surgery one week ago. Got out of the hospital the next day and felt okay I was able to eat without the pbing or sliming. Then 2 days after I got out of the hospital I came down with a gastro intestinal bacteria and got really sick ended up going back into the hospital for two days. Since then I feel really restricted. Not pbing or sliming just feel like I can't eat much more then 1/2 cup. I can get Water down fine.

My question is does everyone think I am okay or is this restricted feeling with no fill just from all the trauma in my belly from the gall bladder surgery and bacteria? Let me know your thoughts. Thanks everyone.

      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.
