Guest guest Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 Hello, I went to the dr. and he wanted me to come back for an x-ray but realized I lived 2 hours away...So we both agreed to just take all of the saline out...I feel 1000% better...I got to eat a baked potato today...I'm not sure what caused it and he wasn't either without an xray but I really think my band may have slipped, but I guess we'll never know... The main thing is I'm better and can drink and eat...I plan to take the eating slow for a few days but a cheeseburger is in my future...lol... I'm 1 pounds from my goal...which means I've lost 7 pounds this past week...It's a hard way, it's a hard way to lose it but at least some good came from it... ttyl, Rena DOB: 9/26/06 204/136/135...1 pound to go....but I doubt it stays that way...I'm fixing to eat some...Sorry but I'm hungry and so far I've had a baked potato.

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 I'm so glad you are feeling better. Will you be going back for the xray just to see where your band stands at this point? At least you are on the road to recovery!

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 Rena, Now that you are unfilled, be very careful. I was unfilled for 3 months and then portless for about the same. It is so tempting to go all out and eat many of those things our bands haven't really allowed us to eat, like that cheeseburger you mentioned. Once you cross the line and go back to eating with your old habits, it is pure hell to get back on program! I KNOW!!! I'VE BEEN THERE! I'm glad you feel the relief....there is nothing like getting relief after you have been too tight. That is why I am always amazed that people actually "think" they would rather be too tight than too loose! I just figure they really have no idea, do they!!! Being too tight is miserable! Please take care and do the best you can. Keep us posted on how you are doing!

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2007 Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 Hi Rena, I know you won't like what I am going to write, but I do it for your benefit. You have to look at your long term band strategy. This may mean a trip back to Mexico, where a qualified and invested Dr. can look at your stomach and tell you what may need to be done, if anything.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 I totally agree...I just wish I could spare the time and go...I do have a Dr. who is 6 hours from me and she will do fills with fluoro...So if my doctor won't then I will go to her...

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 Hi Jenni, Thanks for the advise...I didn't know until Nina's email that I'm suppose to stay on liquids for 3 weeks...Yikes! I've already failed that...I did eat that cheeseburger plus a steak...But as of now I'm back to liquids until after I get X rayed this Saturday to see if my band did in fact slip...I have to say the cheeseburger wasn't as good as I thought it would be, nor the steak...I told Jim (my husband) that I would hate to go back to eating like that...Guess what I'm craving at this moment...A good salad...Isn't that funny...While filled I want a cheeseburger, and now unfilled I want a salad... Anywho, I will go see Dr. this Saturday and be X rayed...Keep your fingers crossed that my band hasn't slipped... Thanks again for the advise...I need all the help I can get...

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 I agree too! I think that people thinking about the band really need to do their research before hand and have a long term plan for fills in place. I believe that the most important thing they can do for themselves is interview a fill doctor and make sure they use fluoro. With the fluoro..the fill doctor WILL NOT miss the port and WILL NOT damage the port and WILL be able to give you the best fill possible. Chances are you won't ever need an unfill because they could watch what was happening. I truly believe that if it is at all possible...the trip back to Mexicalli is worth every penny spent. I am so thankful that I found Dr. A and that I live where I can drive down when necessary. Just my 2 cents................ rena brown <rena71857@...> wrote: I totally agree...I just wish I could spare the time and go...I do have a Dr. who is 6 hours from me and she will do fills with fluoro...So if my doctor won't then I will go to her...

If he doesn't do an x-ray then I'm going to ask him to take the saline out and give me time to heal from whatever is wrong...I'm ready to eat some solid foods and I won't worry about gaining if I can just eat...I say that now but when I gain I'll probably be freaking out... I had a really bad night last night...I tried drinking some water about 9 PM and went to bed at 10...I could not sleep on either side without belching the water back up and gagging, so I had to prop myself at an upright position and sleep practally sitting up...Needless to say I didn't sleep very much...I'm almost 100% certain it is completely swollen closed...Nothing is going down... It's hard to believe this is happening now, I was getting ready to go get a fill because I had gained 4 pounds and was eating everything in sight and craving sweets so I knew I was ready for another fill and then this happens...Since this has happened I have lost the 4 pounds maybe more since I haven't weighed since Wednesday...I can tell my clothes are fitting looser... I still feel ok, not weak yet...But I'm feeling hungry whereas yesterday I didn't...So off to the doctor I go... I will let everyone know what he does asap... Thanks guys & gals...
