ok...I had my band for 3 mos. now, and so far I lost 23 pounds. Everything is going good except for the night time coughing and gaging that won't stop until I let something up. I don't eat or drink the 1/2 hour before bed, so I'm not sure what it is. I get this tickle in my throat about 15 min. after I lay down, and start coughing so much and so hard that my throat fills up with flem or liquid and I have to run to the bathroom and let it out. Once I let it out I can go to sleep. Now it happens sometimes during the day. What is this, does anyone know, please let me know what I can do, don't want to get no filling taken out, I'm doing so good. Please respond.
