I had my first fill on 4/28 and the MD had to take out 1/2 cc so I could actually swallow the Water. At that point he felt I had good restriction and I would actually feel full. So I had a total of 3 cc's in this fill and 2 were already in the band. Now my question is yesterday late afternoon I had a stomach ache and I felt like I had a huge gas bubble in the upper part of my back that wouldn't move. Eventually it went away and I also took Pepcid AC. Now this morning I am trying to drink my Protein Shake and its like its not agreeing with my stomach, it feels like its upsetting my stomach. Could this be just irritation from being filled? I wouldn't think it was too tight since I don't have problems swallowing. What does anyone think???

Doesn't sound like you're too tight.... can you eat solids without a problem? If no, you could be a tiny bit too tight. The nausea could be temporary. I too was too full after my first fill and they did an unfill. I felt kind of weird the rest of the day.

Well I have been on liquids since my fill, today is the first day i can do mushies and its not lunch time yet. I am going to have some tuna for lunch so I guess that will be the test then. I have some compazine left from surgery I was thinking of using it just in case.

I get nauseous when I have an unfill, and I keep having a gag reflex where I want to throw up even though I don't have to. Maybe you also get nauseous when you have an unfill? I've had two in the last week (one was this morning) and I'm still pretty nauseous.

I think I need to just chalk it all up to the inflammation caused by the fill. I have been pretty much Ok since that first day of nausea.

      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.

      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...

        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.
