does reflux happen hrs and hrs after a meal? I had a drink of milk and small cookie before bed but have also had this happen without having a midnight snack and it's come on all of a sudden

i recently heard about the connection between Es. Cancer and the lap band. This disturbed me greatly because no one told me anything except that I was the last person to receive it, and any questions as to why were put off. Now I understand WHY they always asked about reflux. I would not have done something that would possibly give me cancer as I am already a survivor. So a couple weeks ago, in the morning I was awoken with this horrendous pain in the middle of my chest as if the back of my esophagus was being pulled through, having a bad back I thought it was this. I took my meds and it went away. It happened the other day and I woke right up and took my meds and went back to sleep. When it happened again this morning I became even more concerned, but pulled all my pillows up and slept sitting up and it went away, but I'm getting really concerned, has anyone else that then was diagnosed with something wrong with their esophagus had these symptoms?
