So after a hard day last week then a BRUTAL weekend of which I spent the majority of Sunday/Sunday night full on vomiting and in agonizing discomfort I made an appointment for an emergency unfill with my fill doc up here. I got unfilled this afternoon and instantly felt better. I'm going on Prevacid for a month to see if that calms any irritations around my band and also going to be going for a Barium Swallow/GI to check things out and make sure my band is a-o-k. Good to be safe than sorry!
Here comes the hard part... managing my portions! It doesn't really affect what I'm eating just how much as my band pretty much allowed me to eat everything with the exception of more than a couple of french fries or potato chips (which is whatever, could care less about those now). I weighed myself last night before bed (in the middle of my near projectile vomit stage so I figure I threw up a good 3 lbs!!) and I was at -102lbs total. My goal will now to not deviate from that as much as possible and keep myself in check. I can't rely on my band for everything because what if one day - it's just not there.
WISH ME LUCK!!!!

Don't beat yourself up if you don't stay on plan.....its not worth the energy.
Just remember, every day is a new day xo
good luck! xoxo
How are you doing?
I hope you are doing ok. It has been a while since you posted.
I am having this same problem now. The problem is I can't get unfilled because I had my surgery in Austin and I am now in Denver CO. I went and saw a Gastro guy and have a scope scheduled for Wed this week. I think I have slip. That being said, I think the gastro guy can get me in with a bariatric surgeon here much faster, especially if there is something really wrong.
Anyway, post soon if you're up for it. We are all wishing you the best.
thinking of getting a lapband done...Would you do it again? any regets? you seem sick alot to me?
