Some help and advice needed please

[donnax658]

Hi everyone - I'm looking for some advice please - I had a gastric band fitted in March last year. It's a 14ml band and on sunday I had it filled again and now have 11mls in it. It has been quite tight since then ....usually in the morning but easing off a bit by the evening.
I tried to eat a weight watchers meal at lunchtime today and only managed 2 small bites before I got that familiar *stuck* feeling so left it. 4 hours later it still felt *stuck* so had no option than to bring it up (sorry tmi).
Well since then everything I eat or drink feels *stuck* - even just sips of water.
Does it sound like
a) it's too tight
b) the trauma of being sick has caused it to swell or
c) it's slipped :-(

I'm goin out of my mind with worry because I really really can't afford the cost and hassle of having it taken out if it's slipped.

Donna xx

Im not a bander so my advice is purely my opinion but Im thinking that maybe you have irritated your little tummy when you vomited and now it is a bit swollen. I dont know about bands though so like I say, its just an opinion and possibly a wrong one at that lol
I hope it improves soon xx

Hi Donna I am sorry things are not going too well, I am also a bypasser but it would seem to me that your best move would be to contact your team and explain the situation and get there advice. Hopefully a bander will come along soon.
