Don't touch her, she banded !



Recommended Posts

I was in Toronto to get a fill on Thursday. Everything went well, but on Saturday I started not being able to eat yogurt, then it became juice and Water. A little tea was ok. On Sunday morning things were the same so I called the clinic knowing it was closed, but hoped there was instructions if you need help.Nothing. Sooo I went to a hospital down town Toronto, I think it was Mount...... ( something , Well they would not touch me because of the band and said that I should wait until Monday... I was flying bacl on Sunday night...... As things go, It settled down so I left Toronto. What should I have done ? I am a little concerned, what if it flares up... what caused it ? Pretty scary not feeling that you can swallow water ! :biggrin:

You likely had some delayed swelling from the fill. The squeezing of the fill can cause the stomach tissues to swell which will make you tighter. Probably why the tea went down--hot drinks sometimes help reduce the swelling a bit.

I am surprised at the reaction of the hospital though.

Me too ! Considering I was from out of town, I expected something ! Well now that I am back at home things are better. I am able to eat thick Soup, Protein Shake and crackers. I am so taking it slow. I will ask the clinic what I should do if that ever happens again. :biggrin:

Good to hear you are doing better!

I was overfilled on my last fill, I felt fine when I left the office but that night I got tighter. I couldn't get anything down and by the next morning I could barely swallow my own saliva. I had to wait until the afternoon to get my slight unfill. So I understand how miserable you felt.

I have to fly to Toronto to get fills so I sure hope that it keeps going good. I really don't want to have to fly back.

      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...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        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.
