I was banded on monday and had some issues with vomiting at the hospital, after going home I am still really nauseous, everything makes me gag. Did anyone else experience nausea for this long and if so what did you do to get past it, I am taking in plenty of water but it still makes me sick to my stomach. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I was banded a week ago and I have not had any problems so far. Did you ask your nurse or Dr what they thought? Are you still throwing up? I feel so bad for you and your prob like what is this B***h over here telling me she had no problems lol jk hope that made ya laugh even just a little?? Serious though talk to the dr asap thats what I would do.

I did end up calling the doctor and he had me come right in. Come to find out I had a bunch of air trapped in the band, as soon as he drew out the air i felt immediate relief. My doctor said it is fairly uncommon, he has only had a few patients that this has happened to. I was able to drink a protein shake and had some cream soup and now I feel like a million bucks. Thanks for responding.
