It took two days of clear fluids to settle down. I hope you can get in soon, but I don't think it will be a big problem. You might ask for an endoscopy to see what the pouch looks like on the inside and to see if you have a hiatus hernia popping up into the esophagus. Take care and keep us posted.Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02400904095865742386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6281036353973368815.post-18756027333603095962011-05-24T12:32:34.273-07:002011-05-24T12:32:34.273-07:00Don't be scared Michelle.

And if you get into debt, you're the sort of person who will tighten your belt (no pun intended) for a while and just get on with paying it back. Your health is more important, and you need the band for that. Let us know how you get on.<br />CarolineLonicerahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13141723287143567146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6281036353973368815.post-84986200090893911882011-05-24T12:02:32.265-07:002011-05-24T12:02:32.265-07:00Dont be scared.

If you need an unfill, it will be because you probably have swelling. when I had my first unfill, it was immediate relieve and than when I had my endoscope a few weeks later and my doc determined that everything was where it should be, he started to refll me again. Most important thing is to listen to doc.Jacquiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03612121609893900847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6281036353973368815.post-57463195314632018382011-05-24T11:24:58.702-07:002011-05-24T11:24:58.702-07:00Try not to let yourself go to that crazy scared pl...Try not to let yourself go to that crazy scared place yet....who knows what your Dr will say today??.....and who knows what your surgeon will say tomorrow?? <br /><br />You are in my thoughts and prayers!!<br /><br />XODarlin1https://www.blogger.com/profile/15336353483395974173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6281036353973368815.post-79939464928238741722011-05-24T09:42:56.217-07:002011-05-24T09:42:56.217-07:00Michelle, I'm so sorry to hear this.

You need to make them take excellent care of you. The money will be figured out later, your health is most important.<br />Big Hugs,<br />Jen<br />It's not letting me comment from my account - <br />http://jenslapbandjourney.blogspot.com/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
