What does a slippage feel like?



Recommended Posts

I am not sure what is going on with me. I had a second fill last week. The doc put in 1 cc & then took out 1/2. I was banded on 10/5/07. My 1st fill was 12/6. On my 1st fill he put in 2 ccs & it was to tight he took out 1. this time on 11/6, he put the one in thinking I was good with 1 the last fill but, it was to tight. I needed the fill as I was getting very very hungry. Now, I can barely eat anything. When I do eat it gurgles soooooooooooo loud you can hear me in the office next to me! I can eat 2 bites & it starts... It hurts too, not a whole lot but I have a high threshold for pain, so my little bit may mean a whole lot of pain to others. I mean I took no pain pills for this surgery at all, even in the hospital I declined & said I'll be fine. I had a total hip replacement & I only hit the "pump" 2 times & they could not believe it. Anyway, I just do not think these noises & this little bit of pain is normal. Any ideas?

Search this thread for symptoms of a slip. It just sounds like you are too tight to me. Go in and have a little taken out.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
