Throwing up???

I am seven months out and behind my third fill.... 8cc in my 10cc . Since that fill I have had good restriction but I throw up often.... several times a week. I am now doing liquids and trying to let my band area heal. I am not too tight although this fill was tight at the beginning. The throwing up is not from the bottom of my stomach, it is from the stoma...... I am wondering how many of you throw up and how often does it happen? I know that it is not good to throw up and I know the danger of it. I do not make this happen, I just get stuck.... the past two days I have felt sick to my stomach but that is not related to my throwing up. Also... sometimes when I am out, seems like most of the time shopping, I get really feeling sick to my stomach and then I get really dizzy and I feel as if I am going to pass out. I have noticed both times that my stomach feels kinda hard... I am wondering if it is gas??? Anyone else with this?

I would talk to your doctor, the dizziness would concern me...I do throw-up if I don't eat small portions, chew, chew chew and or eat to fast, It happens to me very often, Im trying to learn to eat much slower and do all the above but it does get hard sometimes....Good luck...

Thanks.... I don't think I am going to fast but I most likely am.... I try to remember to chew, but I think that I take too big of bites....

I usually have trouble with my eating at beakfast or if I have an early lunch. I also have problems with certain foods that do not like to stay down. Th one week I had my way too tight fill I threw up all week. I had a hard time keeping water down. Right now I on a good week only feel that way one time a week. The bad weeks daily if I try to pu**** in the morning hours. As for the dizzy feeling. I have had this issues twice. Once when my BP meds needed to be adjusted because it was getting my pressure too low. The second was when I was not drinking as much water to keep everything going with this South Texas heat. I ended up with IV fluids and I now push the fluids until I fill like I could float my eyeballs. Becca

I also have problems with only because I eat too fast or I don't chew very well.I'm constantly eating on the run.I have given up on chicken because it's the only food that gets stuck.Since I can't eat chicken I have switched to fish and chilli and other foods that go down better and have not had a problem with...... I'm also worried that maybe my band is slipping although I'm not having a signs of heartburn or pain.I go to the doctor on the 16th.I know what I'm doing is wrong and I have to slow down so I'm really trying to focus on that part before the doctor decides I need another fill. Don't worry WE are all in this together and we can do it together! Take care......

After 3 unfills and a slip, I am so very careful and never throw up or PB anymore. It SCARES me! I would talk to your doctor. Take care!

Be careful, or you may find yourself in my novel...

I have had episodes, but only when I dont chew well enough, or eat too fast. I find that a warm cup of tea/coffee helps before I eat. I would call the doctor anyhow. Better to be safe than sorry.
