Help - 3rd Fill

[melady 0]

I went last Thursday for a fill and went from 4.5 to a 6 as I have not lost anything for the last 2 months. I have not eaten anything or even been able to keep down Water. Well, I suppose it would stay down if I did not feel I had to be sick to feel better. I have a constant like pain in the centre of my chest and I am just wondering if anyone can help me out. They did say to start slow and I have not had solid food at all. But, like if I have only had 2 tablespoons of a broth Soup and feel this feeling shoudl it go away in a few days..

Call you doctor. I just had my 4th fill and i can only sip about 1tbls at a time and I have to wait for it to go down. For 2 days after a fill, Clear Liquids only and sip. Then 2 days of full liquids and then 5 days of mushies. If you are having a real hard time sipping Water then you need to call you doctor.

melady you probably are too tight and need a small defill. Pain in the shoulders sometimes mean food is not chewed thoroughly enough and is remaining in the pouch. by having a defill for a short period of time, the food can pass through. Also, most successful weight loosers have a fairly loose fill. Everyone has their own sweet spot, but 6-8 ccs in a 10 cc band is fairly common. Hope this information may help.

It sounds like you need an un-fill. I had that problem and I couldn't hold down an liquid. Maybe you are eating things that are not agreeing with you. I get pains and discomfort by that. Hope you feel better soon

I have not been eating at all. All this is based on fluids, Soups, milk, Water, tea, even ice cream... nothing. I seem much better today with the fact that I believe it is gas related. I have so much gas that I can not keep something down. So, I have started my gas-x strips again and hope it works.
