I feel a lot of pressure at the top of my stomach right below the breast bone. It feels like a constricting feeling and I can feel it even if I take a deep breath. Today is the first day I've felt it, is it normal ?

That is where your band is.............so yes, probably pressure................and gas, probably lots of gas in there too.

Thank you !

I had the hernia repair also, so I wasn't sure.

It's quite a bit of pressure and kinda painful.

If you are concerned and they are chest pains, I would contact your dr to be safe. If you can pass the gas (burp) it might give you some relief.
