Hey all. I chugged a vitamin water the other day without thinking, and it hurt bad. Definitely learned my lesson on that one. I've been banded for over 6 months now, and since I chugged my drink I've had this pain after swallowing. It doesn't hurt right away, and after I swallow something it takes a few seconds then i get this bit of pain down near my stomach. It happens when I swallow saliva, or just anything. I was wondering if this has happened to anyone else? Or should I be concerned. Once in awhile it'll hurt on it's own without me doing anything (if that makes sense)

Thanks in advance!

Colleen

Colleen:

You should probably call your band doctor. Maybe he'll do a swallow test to make sure your band is in position. Please let us know how you make out.

Take care.

I'm having the same prob right now with the swallowing and pain. Food goes down no prob but it hurts. What was the result with yours?
