By the time you read this hopefully you will have already seen your doctor and can drink Water.

As a follow up to my last post: I went in today and got an unfill. Boy am I relieved. He took it all out since I couldn't drink anything either and was vomiting acid every couple hours. He said I should heal for two weeks then get a fill again. He doesn't seem concerned about a slip. My body had gone without Water for two days so it was not used to it anymore. It took me a while to get used to hydration. I won't take liquids for granted anymore....

I am sorry that they couldn't find your port. My doctor always has problems finding mind and it sucks. I always leave with a huge bruise larger than my fist. But it seems very negligent for the other doctor to just poke you without even feeling around to see if it was the correct place.

Good Luck!

This line sort of disturbs me: "I am sore all over and feeling weak but the good news is my new total weight loss is 71lbs!"

I don't see how this is good news that you have lost weight due to starving and being dehydrated. It reminds me of the post somebody made that they only ate two tablespoons of food all day and were excited and somebody congratulated them.

It's not anything to Celebrate. Starving. Throwing up all the time, etc. That's not what the band is for. Sorry.
