Stomach Bug

[jammiebp 20]

Was hit last night with the awful stomach bug that's going around. Hit all at once and stomach burned like crazy. The thing is only the horrible tasting bile came up. This was a first since I got my band in Sept. Is this normal when you get a bug? Once food passes through the band can it not come back up and that's while it was only the bile?

Usually your stomach lining swells with extra blood and this can cause your band to be a little too tight. Maybe the bile was trapped in your pouch and seeped back up your esophagus?

Be very very careful that you don't throw-up. PBing is OK but a full blown hurling episode can cause band slippage.
