Hi all...I know I haven't posted in awhile....but I need some advice please:)  I had a migraine headache yesterday...got extremely nauseas and vomited several times even after taking an anti nausea med.  I'm feeling extreme pressure just below my sternum and feel like I have something stuck in my throat that won't go down.  I've never had any problems with my band until this happened...has this happened to anyone here?  Thank you all and hope everyone is doing well.

Peace,

Jessica

"Something stuck in my throat that won't go down" has me thinking about reflux, which I have.

I hope you will call the doctor's office first thing this morning.......

Hey Jessica,  I agree, you need to call your surgeon as soon as possible.  I am sure they will want to make sure the band hasn't slipped or something.  Better safe than sorry.  Hopefully, maybe you just pulled a muscle or something minor like that.  Let us know what the doc says.  Good luck and I will be thinking of you!   Eldy

Thanks girls!  I talked to Dr. Roye's office this am.  They said I probably irritated things and to stay on soft foods for a couple days.  If it worsens to go to ER.  Fortunately I am still sore but feeling better....scary though!  Thanks!

Hi girls,

I am feeling much better...stayed on soft foods for a couple days and everything seems to be in working order:)  And I am looking into a better anti nausea med when I get migraines...ugh!  Thanks again and hope all is well!

Peace,

Jessica
