Acid Reflux Problems

I was banded on 10/12/2011. I am due for my 4th fill in two weeks. I have been having alot of acid reflux and some vomiting. When I eat it seems like my food gets stuck in my espophogus and will not move down.This hurts really bad! During surgery I had my hiatal hernia repaired. Not sure if it's from that or something else. When I swallow my food it will not move. And when I vomit I have more mucus than food coming out. I take Prilosec every morning. I try to eat slow but sometimes get a little to anxious and eat too quickly! Is my band too tight? Is there anything I can do or change to prevent this from happening?

I would get in to see my doctor sooner. You don't want to take a chance on having a slipped band which reflux could be a sign of. Sounds like you are too tight in my opinion.

Sounds like you're having a "stuck" and "sliming "episode, doesn't sound like acid reflux..

Maybe you are right. It may not be acid reflux. I wonder what it could be?
