Has Anyone Else Experiened This?

I had surgery about 3 months ago and wound up gaining weight between my first and second adjustments. I was feeling hungry and really fatigued - no energy - so my surgeon and I decided I needed to have fluid added. I had my second adjustment (only 1 additional cc) approximately 2 weeks ago and it took me about 10 days to feel semi-decent. Now I am having issues with reflux, slight regurgitation, some burping and a persistent thirst. I do not want to have fluid removed and am thinking I may have to exist on protein shakes and pureed foods going forward. Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone have an suggestions?

It sounds like you know what you're doing, liquids and soft foods for a few days and Rolaids or Prilosec for

heartburn should take care of your problems. Don't worry about your thirst, stay hydrated, and lots of luck.

Listen to Corrigan. You should also sleep with your head elevated. Using 3 or 4 pillows will help with the nighttime reflux. If it isn't better in a few days you really should be seen by your doctor.

If you're having reflux and regurgitating. I think you should get a slight unfill. I would think you're to tight and risking damage to yourself and your band.
