newmein2015 13 Posted February 7, 2015 Ok,all you ladies out there. Maybe you can help me out. I'm 3 1/2 weeks out from surgery, and all of a sudden everything I eat no matter how soft, feels like it has trouble going through. I could hardly eat anything yesterday. This morning I'm eating some scrambled eggs and every bite is painful. I remember reading somewhere that hormone fluctuations can cause this to happen. I'm just hoping that's what it is and nothing is wrong with my band! Thanks in advance for your input! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amponder 396 Posted February 7, 2015 I went in for a fill the other day and for 2 or 3 days I felt fuller when I was eating where there was no restriction before, I was shocked to learn that because I was retaining Water from my menstrual cycle that it can press on the band, and cause further restriction, he didn't give me the normal 1.5cc that he usually gives because he was afraid it would be too much so he gave me .75cc. If anything feels off and it is scaring you call your Dr. though if you keep getting stuck even on soft foods you could have a blockage or could be too tight.

newmein2015 13 Posted February 8, 2015 How long does it usually last? I can't eat even yogurt or pudding without feeling like it can hardly go through. Then it feels very uncomfortable for quite a while after. I go for my first feel in 2 weeks. I hope I'm back to normal by then.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
