Fill on the 3rd...all of a sudden tighter

[LoisinStA 1]

I got a fill on June 3rd. Felt good but thought I could use a little more. Mty doctor was out of town last week so I set up an appointment for this coming Thursday. All of a sudden yesterday and today I seem to not be able to eat as much, getting more stuff stuck. Is it possible that after 13 days it would tighten??? Anyone else have this happen? I figured I would see how I do tomorrow and Wednesday and then decide if I want to keep the appointment. Any advice would be appreciated....

I had mine filled on June 4th. Three days later, I couldn't eat or drink anything without having pain. I thought at first it was me getting use to the band, but by the following Monday, I was still in pain if I ate or drank anything. I went to my doctor on June 11th to have some removed (1cc), and it really helped.

I would say if you are still experiencing pain by late Tuesday night to have your doc remove 1cc and see if it helps.

By the way, during the week of readjustment (June 4-11), I lost 13 lbs. Some say that may be good, but I was not getting any nutrients from food and I was getting extremely dehydrated. Plus, when I went on June 11, my blood pressure was up due to the pain I was experiencing. :sad:
