The day after my one year bandversary. Talk about pains, been there, felt that!!! The Dr. took out 2 cc as well for me. They are telling me my soft tissue around the band gets restricted from my own stress levels." I cause myself this pain" Maybe I need to work on that. LOL I hope you feel better soon as do I.

They felt very similar to the intense gall stone attacks I was having before the surgery. I also had horrible gas pains that I felt in my legs and back. And acid reflux and IBS issues after that surgery too.<br />I think my system was in shock trying to figure out how to work again. I ended up on a no fat, no spices, no leaf veggies diet for about 6 months and that helped. <br /><br />I hope they can figure out what is causing your pain and get is solved for you.Cheeseburger Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13744869369395221800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1156718761379163202.post-13252536753482562932010-06-29T21:38:02.484-04:002010-06-29T21:38:02.484-04:00Sorry to hear the news, I hope they can find the a...Sorry to hear the news, I hope they can find the answers soon.Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09461247264194926667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1156718761379163202.post-53844244103039744952010-06-29T21:28:13.524-04:002010-06-29T21:28:13.524-04:00I hope you get to the bottom of this BG.

He couldn't find anything wrong so he gave me a fill... not my full fill. Now I am working my way back to my sweet spot and it has been tough. But, I would rather protect the band now then regret it later.

I had a crazy appointment last week where I felt like I was rushed in & out and told to get an upper GI and felt like I didn't get my questions answered. Let us know whats going on. If it makes you feel better in December I was over filled and had pain so they made get a UGI to rule out a slip - the tech was clueless, but my surgeon looked right at it and said it's fine, so hopefully you'll hear right away.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07045822533798781579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1156718761379163202.post-67703620308462732702010-06-29T18:07:52.220-04:002010-06-29T18:07:52.220-04:00Ugh!

Your doc was a bit of an a$$ wasn't he? It doesn't seem right that he sent you home when the barium wasn't passing through. Did he figure it wasn't him who was going to feel dehydrated so it wasn't a big deal? What you said about the oesophogeal spasms sounds like it makes sense (although as my husband says 'remember, she's not a real doctor'). It wouldn't surprise me if you perhaps got blocked on the ribs and this has caused the muscles/nerves to spasm. I know it wasn't all in a nice logical consecutive fashion...but I know when you work a muscle and it spasms it is more likely to do it again, if I get a cramp in my calf, I have to be careful not to tense that calf up for days or I will get another cramp.<br /><br />I hope you get some relief tomorrow and I hope you're doctor's over his PMS! ~~Good vibes~~ coming your way. xxSparklerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05490306062512171500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1156718761379163202.post-44171383528731094382010-06-29T18:00:39.971-04:002010-06-29T18:00:39.971-04:00OMG, that's horrible, I hope you get some answ...OMG, that's horrible, I hope you get some answers soon and feel better!Theresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07794746954511347596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1156718761379163202.post-52030010054944610212010-06-29T17:57:26.827-04:002010-06-29T17:57:26.827-04:00Hope you get some answers.

Not sure how it would work with the band in place. I think you need more wine-just saying. But sure hope you get some relief and answers.
