Does The Pouch "grind?"

Hi everyone! My band has been acting a little weird since my 5th fill a week ago monday...

When I eat it feels like my pouch/band kinda "grinds".... With slight pain at times. Im able to keep everything down, no pb or getting sick at all. Just that strange sensation. I'm trying my hardest to take small bites and chew well, but I'm wondering if not enough. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance:)

    Sounds like you may be too tight. You might try a small unfill.

    Jennybee girlfriend!!!

    OH that sounds so weird, grinding. Hmmm, I don't think you should have any kind of pain at all hon, not even slight. Perhaps just a tiny unfill? How much did they put in your band this time?
