Pressure and sorness in the throat



Recommended Posts

For the last 3 days I have had some pressure and soreness in my throat. This happens pretty much all the time, but is worse after a meal or after I drink a lot.

Now, I have spoken to my doc. Since I have a sinus drainage and sinus headache the belief is it is due to that, not my band.

Maybe I worry to much. The last time I had thoat pressure I has having a lot of reflux due to my gallbladder needing to come out.

I hope that it's just the drainage that has my throat irritated, but worry that it's reflux and could damage my band.

Normally I would take the wait a few days as see approch like the doc said, but I am leaving in 2 days for Florida for a week. I don't want to get to Orlando and end of in the ER.

Sounds like the symptoms I have withe reflux as well. It could be as a result of the sinus issues, but is there any way you can get in for a slight unfill? I'm very conservative and have gone in for a couple of unfills quickly, rather than wait to see if I got better/worse. Each time I immediately felt better, and was later able to add back what had been taken out. Since you are going out of town, might be better safe than sorry and have some taken out now.

Good Luck!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
