I'm 15 months post band with plication, no complications, I lifted a 50 lb bag of dog food, noticed at supper that I get pressure pain when I swallow? I feel it at the top of my stomach seconds after I swallow...anyone have this before? It doesn't really hurt it Just feels like pressure?

It might just be the food squeezing through the stoma. Since there is no pain I'm not sure I would worry much. Is the food coming back up at all or are you able to eat okay?

It might just be a bit of a strain, always be careful when lifting heavy things to be sure that you are not straining your back or stomach muscles.

Since we have had abdominal surgery the chance of a hernia is increased. I doubt that is the case for you, but if it continues give the Doc a call and check in. Better safe then sorry in my opinion.
