Unexplained vomiting

[Areajay66 0]

I got banded 5 yrs ago and lost 30 kilos over 3 yrs - very slow but I was happy. I had some removed so I could enjoy my honeymoon and when I got home I had it refilled. I started to experience unexplained vomiting. It was not a block or a stuck as I know very intimately what that feels like. Instead the vomiting was violent, unpredictable and sudden and often I would not make it to the bathroom. I had a barium swallow but all was ok. I ended up having some Fluid removed as I was so run down and exhausted not to mention highly embarrassed by the vomiting. There were times I would even loose bladder control. I am now back to my pre operative weight and am terrified of getting another fill. I am now considering sleeving. Does anyone else experience this?

Not me. Just wanted to respond. I've read many posts over the years and not one was similar to yours? Has to be a reason why you violently vomit though? What do your doctors think?

Is it possible your pregnant?

No, I am definitely not pregnant. The surgeon had no explanation either. I am now considering a sleeve but I'm terrified that it will happen again and then I'm stuck with this same issue for life. Just wondered if anyone else has experienced the same thing.

It happened to me recently a couple of times, In one occasion I was walking and I cough and suddenly I vomited, no nausea, right in the middle of my living room. I guess I ate a little more than I should eat. But I decided to go back to 6 oz of food and to watch for the sensation of not feeling hungry instead of feeling full.
