Hi Everyone! I've had my band put in last March of 07. I've only had two adjustments the whole time and have lost 115 pounds. I feel great most of the time, but sometimes I get reflux so bad that at times it burns the back of my throat. I went to see the doctor back in December and he opened the band all the way and said that I should feel alittle better. Well, like I said, I have good days and bad days. Does anyone else have bad reflux conditions?:huh2:

Hi! It sounds like your band is too tight. The same thing had happened to me and I went back to the doctor and he took some fluids out and I starting eating good again. I've had my surgery last March of 07 and I've lost 115 pounds. I feel great! Keep up the good work. It is certainly worth it.
