how long should you wait to see Dr. if you think your band is too tight



Recommended Posts

I got a fill this week on tuesday. Too much Water, milk, shake all comes up. I did keep some stuff down. I don't dare have food yet not even mushy food, liquids hurt.

has anyone else had this issue?? Is it normal after a tight fill???

How long should I wait before I see dr.??

Hi Vivianna,

I would give the dr's office a call ASAP. I wouldn't wait, especially since you can't hold liquids down. You don't want to dehydrate and especially lose all the minerals and Vitamins your body needs. They may have filled you too much. But I really wouldn't wait.

Same here - had fill on Monday couldn't eat or drink for 2-3 days - supposed to stick with liquids but could barely do that - now 4 days after fill I feel normal again - can eat my normal food, drink shakes, nothing is getting stuck, feeling tight, etc. I do drink a hot cup of tea every morning because of someone said it loosened up the band and it works great. I think you will feel better in a day or two - I am glad I didn't call doctor and fill taken out. I would be calling now to get it put back in.

      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.

      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...

        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.
