I had surgery in 9-07. yes you will fill very unconfortable when food gets stuck, it can be very pain full chew chew chew, it helps also I've found that if you chew some papaya enzyme tablets it helps a lot. you can buy them almost at any store.trust me they are a life saver. as you will find out. good luckand take care.

I had the lap band put on 4 weeks ago, for me it was the the best option. 1. I like the fact it is reversable. 2. It is totaly agustable. 3. I can have sweets and not get dumping. 4. with time you can loose the same weight as the gastric bypass, It's just slower. Wich I belive is better for me.
