gigim 8 Posted March 10, 2009 I got a fill on March 6th, I was fine, up to and including lunch today. I got home and I had some boiled chicken and it got stuck. and I have vomitted 3 times. The chicken has come up. I had my surgery 9-16-08. This was the first time this has happen. I am worried. Gigi:crying::biggrin::crying: Can anyone else relate to this.....

RestlessMonkey 7 Posted March 10, 2009 I'd say that you will need to avoid boiled chicken for a while, if you're sure you chewed well, had small bites, didn't drink with the meal, and so on. Its not uncommon ... you just had a fill. Now that you've vomited your stomach and esophagus are probably irritated and I think most docs recommend just drinking fluids for a day, then back to mushies and soft food, and advance as tolerated. Try the chicken (it is a problem for some) again in a few months! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MissBS 3 Posted March 11, 2009 Oh boy can I relate!!! I was banded just about the same time you were (mine was Sept. 19, 2008). After my last fill (3rd) on December 19th, I have REAL SERIOUS restriction. When you say you vomited.... did you PB (just the chewed up chicken) or was it for reals throwing up (stomach acid, etc.)? I hate to be gross, but just wondering. I cannot eat chicken or turkey if it is just boiled, baked, or grilled. I have tried it on several occasions and PB'd every time... even with tiny bites and chewing, chewing, chewing). Seems to be better (most days) in soup.... but I still have to be careful. Baked fish can do the same thing. My band is very moody and some days I can tolerate things..... next day maybe not. It makes planning, eating, and tracking very challenging!! But, I do love my band. Not sure if this rambling post helps you, but you are not alone. Good luck to you. Becky Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
