hi everyone, today my wife tells me that she has been feeling like she has a heart murmur. she is also constantly coughing. has anyone had these kind of symptons?

thnks

The only time I have heard of someone having a cough with the lapband it is usually from reflux at nite irritating the throat. I had this and was to tight.It all went away after a unfill. Heart problems could be possible just may not be due to the band. It would be best to have it checked by your doctor.

She needs to go see her regular MD. I see no way that the band should cause a heart murmur, and pre-op tests would have detected an existing murmur. But if she doesnt feel well she needs to see a doctor! Hope she feels better soon.
