HELP--Burning sensation in the band area

Hello all

I have been having some buring in the area when the lap band should be located. Not all the time but from time to time there is a buring sensation, kind of like heartburn but not nearly as bad. It has been two years since I had the band put in and I am a bit concerned. I am wondering if perhaps I ate something that might be a bit stuck and it is causing this problem. I do not have any issues sleeping at night nor do I have any kind of reflux issues. I do not have any problems eating food at all or drinking either.

I am just concerned because I do not have insurance that would cover anything related to bariatric so the cost of any test weighs heavy on my mind. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated

Thanks so much

Michele
