HELP!!!!and advice needed...

I got my first fill 6 weeks ago. 3cc's. not sure how large my band is, I have the realize band. Everything was ok, I could tolerate pretty much anything. I haven't lost much weight in those 6 weeks, only 5 lbs.

Now, yesterday I got my second fill, an additional 1.5 cc's. I cannot eat ANYthing. I tried to eat a little chicken today and I thought I was going to DIE. For about 20 minutes I thought I really was going to DIE. I kept spitting up, exteme pain, finally I threw up.

Now, 2 hours later I just feel terrible. Really horrible physically. Did I mess up my band by throwing up? Do I need to go back for an unfill?

Any advice would be appreciated. I'm a little freaked out.

Re: HELP!!!!and advice needed...

Please call your band surgeon. He'll probably want to see you to give you an unfill. I hope you feel better soon.

Re: HELP!!!!and advice needed...

HIII! i have nooo idea why that is happening! I AM EXACTLY THE SAME!

the onlything i have succesfully got down is scrambled eggs, and some air popped popcorn... i havent had to throw up anything. but just feeling very uncomfortable and very unabling as i am trying to study for my uni end of year exams!

BLAAA.

do i really have to get an unfill? because my first fill did nothing?

eeeeek! stress!

:-(

GOOD LUCK WITH YOU! LET ME KNOW WHAT YOUR DR SAIS!

any one else have stories of second fill?

is it normal to be reallly tight first few days?
