    BonMag got a reaction from shadena32 in I can feel the band, can you?   
    I had the SAME thing, and still do on occasion. After my surgery it was SO bad that I was preparing myself mentally to have the band removed. One morning I woke-up in tears because it hurt so bad it felt like I couldn't breathe. My husband is a chiropractor and luckily knew how to "adjust" my stomach.
    He had me lay on my back and while breathing all of my air out, I press down on my stomach (right below left side rib cage). You breathe all the way out, press your stomach down (towards your feet, not towards your butt!) and towards your midline. Hold it down and take a few deep breaths. I still have to "adjust" my stomach on occasion.
    I hope this helps!
    Hang in there.
