Hopefully the unfill will give you some relief to tide you over until your barium swallow. I'll pray also that everything is well!

Alex, what is it with us and our fills? I'm getting the last .2cc's I had put in taken out on Monday. I can't wait. I could just get down liquids for this whole week. I thought it was just my menses, but NOT. I think some of us are more sensative than others. What were your worse symptoms? Were you able to get any liquids down. Sorry if you posted this already, but I must have missed it.

Thinking of you Alex, hope you get good results, REALLY hoping for non-slippage for you....and well done on losing all that weight on such a little fill!

Hope it all works out for you

Sorry, Alex, I forgot this thread about your unfill & I asked you on your original one how you're doing. Been there, done that, and it's pretty scary. But you know you did the right thing. I'll be thinking of you till the 8th.

me too....I was curious what the symptoms were too....I had an UN-fill about 3-4 weeks ago due to horrible reflux at night...could not get a night's sleep and could hardly eat anything without losing it! The doc really didn't want to un-fill it...but i told him I NEED sleep!

he did, reluctantly...figures I would gain. I think I am going to call to have 1/4 cc put back in... .5 was too mych and .25 would be just enough!

Alex,

Can you tell me what your symptoms are?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
