Hi All,

Well, I had a horrible night that I spent sleeping sitting up because I had constant reflux. Lots of burping and reflux. Does it mean something is stuck? Will it pass? Should I drink? Eat? Call my doctor? I just got this last fill four days ago, and I have been eating and drinking carefully, but I have had heartburn and now this. I would appreciate some pearls of wisdom. Thanks!

Do you think you could be too tight? Why don't you check w/ your Dr.? Reflux is bad, but it's can be even worse for us "Bandsters". You may need a little removed. Please keep us posted. Good Luck!:D

Hi,

My doctor only added .2cc, but it may have been too much. You know, on the way to my appointment (I take the train to NYC from Phil.) I was not feeling well--fatigue, achiness, and stomach pains which I thought was hunger. Maybe I have a bug on top of things. I did e-mail my Dr. (it's so great that she is accessible that way). I will call if I don't hear from her in a few hours. Thanks.

Yep. Sounds like you're too tight. Even .1cc can sometimes be too much. Maybe she can back it off by half? You definitely don't want esophagitis or reflux pneumonia.

Good luck! I hope you get to feeling better real soon!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.ย  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.ย  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? Itโ€™s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so Iโ€™m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight.ย It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey โค๏ธย Together, we got this!
