Everything is better with 1/2cc taken out of band. I guess it was just too tight and fluids couldn't pass. But home from ER had canned soup was so starving and all went fine. Thanks everyone for sound advice.

I'm really glad you are OK, Spuddzy. I was worried aboutcha! It's no fun to be unable to swallow even liquids. Glad you got some help.

That is what I had taken out on Friday. I was having trouble eating thought I need an unfill and they thought I was just swollen. Thursday night I had a pressure in my chest. I thought I was having a heart attack. I went to ER they ran all kinds of test. The conclusion my band was too tight. See my doc in the morning. I went to doc Friday I had lost 10 pounds in 9 days. He took out .5 CC and I feel so much better. I am glad you are better too!!!!! It sure is something figuring this all out. They asked why I didn't call the office before going to the ER. I said "I thought I was having a heart attack. It never occurred to me that it was band related."
