bowel movement problems

if so did anyone have a problem with keeping food down when they haven't had a bowel

Are you saying you haven't had a bowel movement for so long that you are being sick? If so, you have probably gone beyond OTC remedies and need to see a doctor. You shouid never let yourself te that constipated! 

You may need to clarify what you're asking. 

I had tremendous bowel issues while banded. At one point, I hadn't had a bowel movement in more than a week and could not even stand up. The band caused my stomach to twist into a Figure 8, kinked my intestines, and there was simply no way for the bowels to move. It was very dangerous and I hope that's not your situation. If you're having issues with bowel movements, they need to be addressed. If you're nauseated and throwing up you also should speak to a medical professional. That isn't safe or healthy.
