I was banded on September 27th. I have had zero issues. Gas pain subsided quickly with heating pad after surgery, everything has been going so smoothly, I almost wondered if my surgeon actually put the band in! I have lost close to 50 pounds since surgery, I feel wonderful most days. I had my first full of 1.5 cc's at the end of October, adding to the 2.5 cc's put in at surgery. Surgeon told me in December I did not need a fill. I believe he was very accurate as I did not have any issues with hunger until a week ago. I went for a fill yesterday, he put in .5 cc's. I understand that there is swelling, what not. I am able to drink, I have stuck to a liquid diet since the fill as instructed. Today, I have the worst heartburn EVER! All day. I was out of Prilosec. Which is my own fault, just went and got some and took one. I am concerned that I am too tight? Anyone have any advice? Everything goes down, with no problems. Just horrible heartburn (which I have not had ever)

If it continues it is definitely worth a call to your doctor! You definitely could be to tight if this didn't exsist before the fill. I would give it a few days! Good luck and I hope you start feeling better soon
