So this has been on my mind... I am in the process of getting approval for lap band. I suffer from Migraines with nausea and vomiting. Will vomiting ruin my band????

I'm sorry to hear you suffer with Migraines only ever had a few in my life and they were awful. So I feel for you!

I've heard and read that vomiting can cause the band to slip. It might be worth talking this over with your surgeon.

Good luck!

Do you have a Neurologist? If not I would go to headache.com and find someone near you who is board certified in headache medicine.

One of the best things I ever did was learn my Migraine triggers and have Botox injections for migraine prevention.

For me the best medication is prevention. Good luck ! Migraines can be so frustrating...

Thank you Nurse_Lenora!! I do see a neurologist and we are trying all different medications which typically don't help. I have heard of Botox for Migraines but have not spoken to anyone that has tried it. Thanks for the information!!

Hey JMbdt.. No I don't. I have read up on it though. No solid proof it really works.

Hopefully you'll be like me and your Migraines will go away for the most part. I could have 12 a month and now only 1 maybe 2 a month. My meds still work wonders for me. It took years to find the right one, but now usually within 30 minutes or so its gone. I take 40 mg of Relpax.

My friends got it and she said she had a slight difference not a massive one. But her sister it worked well for.

Really do feel for you.

      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.
