Painful eating after fill



Recommended Posts

I just had my third fill... the other two did basically nothing... could eat like a horse. This time, I'm having painful swallowing of anything... including Water. Does this get better? I really don't want to take out any fill since I want to lose weight... just wondering if the pain subsides.

Sounds like your band is too tight! You might want them to take out just a little, perhaps 0.25, but you should always be able to handle liquids at all time. But definitely see your doctor for a little unfill!

I would give it a couple days to see if it subsides. If you can't eat solids then move to mushies to see how you do. The danger is when you can't keep down liquids.

good luck.
