Why am I doing this? I don't even feel close to full but almost every time I take a breath, I cough. I didn't eat fast either. I am 3 1/2 weeks post op.

We maybe doing this b/c you are full, its a different full after being banded. You will no longer get the stuffed full feeling you're used to.

Cough, sneeze, hiccup, sigh ,(me) pain in shoulder can all signal you are full.

Sounds like a full signal to me. And I mean lap band full not pre-lapband full! I always stop at the early signal... gets really ugly after that!

From time to time I get the coughing and its one of the signs for me I've had enough. It's odd sometimes I get a runny nose other times its the coughing.

I forgot the runny nose sign,lol

Weird cause I have had the runny nose thing, too. It is just so daunting cause this is happening and I am still hungry. And it isn't head hunger it's definitely stomach hunger. :-(

Yes jersey I get the runny nose at times half way through my meal whilst I'm still hungry, this little tool can be moody at times.

My nurse told that coughing is generally a sign that your band may be too tight as well as the hiccuping I used to get hiccups as a soft stop then I had .25 cc out of my band and I actually burp not lol no more hiccuping

My does the same thing something about pressure and nerve endings being close to the band it's a normal sign " hard stop" that means your past full and you've eaten too much I usually lay down when it happens ( if I gave that convenience) and it goes away quicker just make sure you have a couple soft pillows behind your shoulders.

If it doesn't stop you should see your doc.
