It sounds like you are too tight, the same thing happened to me. when they hook out fluid the 2nd time they only took out .2 cc's and it made a big difference.

I've had the pain you mention since the day I got my band (Last Tuesday) I have discomfort in my collarbones, shoulders and chest. I think I need to be taking smaller sip of everything. I tend to gulp!!

I thought I knew sooo much about the Lap Band after all my research and waiting almost 2 years before finally getting it. I was banded this past Tuesday in LA by Dr. Carson Liu and now I have a million questions...Wednesday night I swallowed a pill and it got stuck (Dr's office did not tell me to crush the pills) about 3 hours after swallowing the pill, I wake up thinking I'm having a heart attack. Pain very high up in my chest area, collar bones, neck and upper back. I thought I'd need to go to the ER. sat upright for a couple of hours sipped diluted fruit juice and finally it subsided. Today my mouth is watering and I'm nauseous. Any suggestions for the nausea? I think I need a Mentor? anyone interested? Pam
