Help! I Have Been Throwing Up For 2 Days!!!


Good Morning,

I recently get a fill on my band (last wednesday). Normally after my fills I am fine I can eat whatever just small portions. Well after this fill I have not been able to eat anything. Well I just ate a pop sicle and it stayed down. But I can not drink water or tea. I have the larger band which holds 10cc. At my last fill my doctor stated i am at 9 1/4. I am not sure if I should go get some of the fluid out or am I am finally at the point where I should see some major weight loss.

Please help

Loveasy

This kind of problem should be discussed with your surgeon right away.

Please let us know the results of your conversation with him.

When was your surgery? Are you saying you have 9.25cc in a 10cc band?
Are you saying you have not had any restriction until this fill?

Please give us more details.

and Welcome to BandLand!!!

If you can't even keep liquids down, you are definitely overfilled. For some people, the teeniest of fills can make a huge difference (me!). Please call your doctor ASAP and get in for an unfill.

Throwing up should not be seen as a diet aid! Throwing up is dangerous for your band and can cause slippage or erosion. You are supposed to be able to eat with the band. Call your doctor ASAP.

Over filled or the flu


Hi there,
Just wanted to share my experience. I had a fill and was extremely restricted. The next day I couldn't even get water down. Called my Dr. and he said just give it time. So I did. I figured he was right, it will calm down. Well...... went camping and it still wouldn't let me keep anything down. I would no sooner get it down and it would come back up. 4 days later, I was so weak, I was seeing things. Decided I better get some IV fluids. Went to the Emergency room and they wanted to admit me. I asked them to call my Dr. and he said to take in as much fluids as they will give me and get to his office ASAP. I took in 3 bags of fluid in no time. Felt ok but not even 60 % better. Got to the Dr. and he deflated me. I felt instantly better as soon as I was able o get water down. M color perked up with the water and my weakness went away after I drank a LRG. protien shake. The only things we came up with was between a fill and the flu I was closed up. My Dr. says everytime you throw up your stomach lining swells. Well after throwing up about 25 times I would assume I was swelled closed.

Now I have a new problem. I am doing the same thing today. I am under a lot of stress like some of the worst stress I have ever had and I am wondering if stress can also make your stomach swell and close. What do you think??

Yes, stress can make the band tighter. I don't know if it would shut it altogether, but it can certainly make you tighter.

If you are throwing up and can't get liquids down, you probably need to go in for an unfill until you are feeling better. (stress-wise and band-wise). Good luck!
