Need Advice!!

[SazzyS]

Hi e1.
I've not been on for ages, so hope e1's happy.
I thought i would try here for advice as it seems a lifetime to get through to anyone who can help me at my hospital.
Here goes,

I had my first band fill on 18th July, then a couple of weeks later had a dietician appointment, i explained that i didn't feel any restriction what so ever, so she made me an appointment for another fill, which was done 4th Aug. After my 2nd fill I was sat in the waiting room drinking water, but it wouldn't go down properly, so i went back in and they took some out.
I then was able to drink properly.
However since then things seems a bit weird, I can eat a sandwich one day, then if i have the same sandwich another day, i can't eat it at all, I was throwing up like crazy at lunch time but i had eaten the same thing before?
Any ideas why this is?

They have been other foods also that i just can't help but throw back up.
Do you think i need more taken out maybe??

Also I haven't lost any weight since the third week post op. I have now had 2 fills but no weight is coming off at all.
Help!!!

Sorry for the long post, but i just had to ask someone for help.

Thanx

Hi Sazzy, I too have this problem and think I need a little taken out. I had 7.5 mils in my 9ml band on my 2nd fill and I can't eat much at all. The only thing I can keep down is weetabix and slimfast shakes. If you're managing a sandwich one day and not the next then I'd lay off them for a while. I can't eat any kind of bread, if I do it sticks and the pain is awful.I'm sure Liz or Caz will be along soon to help and advise you. Good luckxx

Hi I have no idea but someone will be along soon to answer I am sure, is it possible that not being able to drink after having it done was stress ?
good luck xx
