So my main question is, who do I go to for strange neck pains and they'll take me serious and order the correct test?

I would start with your LB surgeon. They're the most likely to be familiar with the medical conditions arising as indirect results of the band.

Self diagnosis is generally inaccurate and not worth the stress it causes, so honestly - relax. :girl_hug:

Between when you eat the food, and when it comes up, how do you feel? Do you feel that something is stuck, or does it feel like all is normal? Has this happened with anything other than red meat?

the anterior throat from the chin to both shoulder capsules and down into the sub-clavicle area, to get spasmed under certain conditions....

"Spams" is a very accurate word to use here, thanks Jack! At the base of my neck, it even feels like a light choking sensation...... and these symptoms have been worst in the evening then morning.

Wheet's - most meats come back up. Only very slow and teeny tiny bites will stay down. Yes, I know Im tight.

Distance in band doc, and kids, and this or that have been the reason for not going to see the doc... one day leads into another and before you know it - its a year and a half later!
