Just an update
Well, I seen Dr G today. He agreed that I shouldn't have these issues with my band and procedded to withdraw 3 cc's of saline. I am now able to keep down both liquids and solids.
BTW, I did lose 10 lbs this past month. And, now my goal weight is in sight. Just 55 more lbs to go. Actually, I am aiming for another goal first. The scale showing 199.Hopfully I can acheive both my goals within the next 12 months.
Hugs

Hi Lisa. Wow, Dr. Guske took a lot out of your band. He only took 1/2 cc out of mine. Maybe because you lost so much this past month.
I told him that I couldn't tolerate any proteins. I am tired of all the heartburn, sliming and throwing up this month.
Congrats on the getting into the 100 range. I'll be joining you in the next few months.
My next appointment is December 5th.
Hugs,
Lucy

Pre-op/RNY day/pre DS day/current/goal- Realize Band 5/15/08; RNY 6/8/05, Removal Band and RNY to DS 8/25/10. RNY & Band surgeon was Dr. Guske.
Lisa, congrats on the weight loss! Glad you can now tolerate your food and liquids!
I remember what it feels like to see the 100's its an awesome feeling. I like the avatar you look great!
Wow 6cc's was aggressive, When I had the 1cc removed on Oct 2 I felt better as soon as it was removed. I even told Dr Rosen wow I think I felt what ever was plugging me up just pass on through! As usual he kind looked at me like right. I did and I have not had any issues since. No weight lose but I feel great.
Thanks for the update,
Karen

That's awesome weight loss for a month! Good luck on the "looser" band. Hope it's what you need to get in a variety of foods.
I just crept under two hundred pounds, so I'll save a spot here for you in One-derland! You'll be here soon!

Hey Lisa-
Glad your visit with Dr. G was pleasant! You should not be vomiting on a daily basis, so I'm glad he removed some saline. Maybe now you will get in all your protein without problems. 10 pounds loss in a month is terrific! Congrats to you! I can't wait til I'm really close to 199. I was hoping by the new year. I'll have to wait and see. Keep doing what your doing 'cause it's working for you!
