Is The Band Too Tight

How do you know if your band is too tight

[Jean McMillan 2,973]

Some signs of a band that's too tight:

> eating problems - getting stuck, regurgitating food (PB's), sliming

> heartburn

> night cough

> reflux

> sore throat (from the reflux)

> chest pain (also need to screen for cardiac problems)

> fullness or pain in the back of the throat

> difficulty swallowing liquids

If you're having eating problems and feel that your eating skills are good (take tiny bites, chew very well, eat slowly, etc.), you might need an unfill.

In my experience, even a tiny unfill can make all the difference in your quality of life without compromising your restriction.

If you suspect that your band is too tight, call your surgeon. The longer you ignore a problem, the harder it is to fix.
