Couldn't Swallow My Own Spit! Literally

Mar 18, 2010

 Ok, as you all know I went in yesterday to get a possible fill. I received 1cc which put me at 7cc total in my 10cc band. I didn't eat (meaning drink because the first day after your fill you are on liquids) for a while because I wasn't hungry. When I did I had a few sips and was stuffed, followed by throwing up half of the liquid. This morning, I tried drinking a Special K French Vanilla protein shake. I could not even drink 1/3 before I felt like I was going to die. I began throwing and spitting because I could not swallow my own spit. Literally. I called the doctors and went right in. Oh my, I was in bad bad bad shape by this time. I threw up while driving to the hospital on myself. Can we all say, "YUCK!" I get there and they take one look at me and rush to get me in. She finds my port and bam you felt the pressure release from the chest and stomach. I readily drunk that nasty concoction to see how it was passing through my port. Well to get me back to how I was yesterday, she had to remove 3cc's. WTH. Oh well I now have to build back up again.  I feel so much better. I came home and drunk a Special K without any problems.  Followed by two hours later a fiber 1 yogurt and 60 calories dark chocolate mousse. I am not hungry  I feel full. That is one experience I never have to have again.
