Hi, I had my band put in in October of 2005 and have had a fill in November of 07(after many fills prior to that). I have restriction however recently, I have been waking up in the middle of the night and not to be gross but I'm coughing and it feels like stomach acid is being coughed in the back of my throat. Does these mean I have erosion or dialation? I read the posts and they suggested dialation, but I'm not sure what that is? Can anyone help???

Helloo everyone. Thanks for all of your support about my questions about dizziness. I took everyones advice and called the doctor. Basically, he said that it was either a cold or it could have to do with my sugar intake, so I'm going to watch my sugar intake and see how it goes. Sherry- How did your fill go? Thanks again everyone.

Hello all! I haven't been posting for a while. I had my surgery on 10/14/05. I've been doing ok. I'm down 39 lbs, but recently I have been getting like dizzy spells where I have to sit down. Does anyone know what that is from? Like is it slippage or maybe I'm just coming down with something I don't know. Has anyone else had this experience?

Hello, I just wanted to hear some encouraging words about having the band put on. I've read on here that a lot of people have problems with it. Should I cancel and have the whole bypass. Can people who have had some success, post your success stories? Thanks for listening. Randy

Thanks to all of you. I really appreciate your support, now I just have to get ready to go to the hospital. Thanks for listening! Randy

Good luck to each and everyone of you. May you all have a speedy recovery! I am getting banded on the 14th, I CAN'T wait. I am so anxious. So for those of you who are going through it now, let the rest of us know how you're doing. Good Luck!! Randy

Hello everyone, I am waiting for approval from my insurance company as well. I do have a surgery date scheduled. I hope all goes well! I'm looking forward to the surgery, it can't come soon enough! http://tickers.TickerFactory.com/ezt/d/3;0;0;0;0/c/0/t/-95/k/0d48/weight.png
