Am I still too tight or just swollen?

Ok, so I have a 4cc band and my first fill was 1.9cc. I could still get a significant amount of food down so I went in for another fill. My fill nurse put in .8cc more in to bring me to 2.7cc. Well I couldn't get any water down while still in the office so she took out .2cc and the water finally went down. So, I go about my merry way and stay on warm liquids the rest of the day and the next. The day after that I couldn't get anything cold down and started throwing up everything I tried to drink. So I made and emergency drive 4hrs away to get her to unfill me more. She took out .4cc more to bring me to 2.1cc which is only .2cc more than what I had on my first fill. Well, it has been a week and I still can't get anything solid down. My question is am I swollen from all the PBing or is it too much still. If I could eat practically anything with 1.9cc why CANT I eat anything solid now at 2.1cc?:help:

I would try and go on liquids for a few days. If that doesn't help then you need an unfill.
