Food not staying down

[Rydaisy 0]

I had my lap banded in May and I am still having trouble with food coming up right after I eat. I can chew things for 30 to 40 chews thinking that it is well chewed and then I get done eating and then I suddenly have to throw up. I need help I am throwing up more then I am keeping down. I am still doing shakes and they stay down. Where as when I am drinking to fast it comes up as well. Some one help me please give me feed back as to what has helped you to keep things down. I don't know if I just don't know when I am full or if my band is too full, which I have not gotten a fill in 4 months, so I don't think it is the band it has always been this tough on me. I have asked my doctor and he has done and ultrasound and everything looks good he says so I don't know. I know I have said it once already in this post but please help I want this to be successful not a failure.

You sound too tight. Our bands don't stay at the same restriction level forever, because we're losing weight. I'd go for an adjustment and I wouldn't wait any longer. Throwing up often is a sure way to invite a band slip. So I've heard. I'm not an expert but that's what I was told. Good luck.

You are either eating too much too fast or your band is too tight. Did you have a primed band (fluid in your band at time of placement?) -- whatever is going on, it is not okay to be throwing up. Put those medical professionals to work -- they are there for you!
