Please Help!!!!

I have been vomiting all night. I am now in a lot of pain. Is it normal from the stomach not being used to being sick? Or could I have done something to the band.

Hey,

So sorry about this, to me it sounds like you have the flu and threw up and you are sore from it. Do you have anti nausea medication, I always take some to help me not throw up, since it’s really hard on the band. If at all possible get some and I keep mine with me at all times. What's recommended now is that you go on liquids only to get down the swelling - its something I do if I ever throw up. After you've been on liquids, and/or if you continue to have problems make sure to check in with your doctor.

Being a bit sore after a big throw up session is normal - taking it easy and doing liquids is part of what we need to do to baby our bands.

Take care, hope you feel better!

You say you're in "extreme pain". That sounds scary to me. I'm sure that most likely you'll be just fine, but I would call the OCC (or your doctor if you were not banded at the OCC) and just check in to see what they think of your symptoms.

I hope everything is fine and you feel better soon!
