So, I was eating lunch today and at the end of the meal I had the uncontrollable cough that did not want to stop. I called my surgeon because this has never happen before to this extent and could barely tell the nurse the problem between coughing. I was told to only take in liquids until they could see me tomorrow. But sometimes even liquids make me cough. I have a burning in the back of my throat and some discomfort at my port site. I just had Fluid taking out about a month ago and about 2 weeks later I had a coughing episode but it stopped fairly quickly, Has this ever happen to anyone?

I was seen by my doc this am and he took 1/2 cc out of my band and order an upper GI. The coordinator told me I there is a problem with the band it would change my requirements t for revision. I feel like I may have aspirated. I still cough and just on liquids. Having upper GI now

I'm glad you are at the doctors. Good luck getting some answers. I always seem to be coughing. But I don't think it's band related in my case. I know that feeling though. Like something that shouldn't have has got into my lungs. Hopefully your body will get it out with all that coughing!

Ok, so the coughing has gone away and the pain in my port area has remained. I thought it was related to me coughing so much, so do my doc. But now I have pain when eating any solid foods. I've been living on Protein Shakes this weekend. Going back to the doc on tomorrow and pcp on Tuesday. Hopefully one of them can figure out the problem.

I saw my surgeon yesterday who thinks something is wrong with my port. The office coordinator will send the information to my insurance company for revision Approval. I've lost 2 lbs over the weekend bc it hurts when I eat solids. I've been doing Isopure and Jello with injury and injury chicken Soup. I hope the approval comes back soon.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
