I have been having a problem swallowing even before getting fills. I was wondering if this is normal. I can understand if the food does not go through the small hole in the stomach, but the food seems to get stuck at the top of my throat and I have to drink water to get it down and it hurts like hell. Is this normal? Does anyone else have this problem. I have had my band for a year.:biggrin:
