Heart Burn.... Why?

I want to know if anyone has any commonalities with this situation. ....

I had a fill last July all went well til October when I had heart burn 3 days in a row.... and a small unfill.... all goes well til February of this year when I spend 2 days vomiting... removed all my Fluid for 2 weeks to let everything rest.... had a fill 10 days ago and everything has been good since but today I have heart burn again.

So back on liquids til I can see the surgeon monday for an unfill.....

I am frustrated because I have to keep being on liquids and feel like I am going backwards. How does my band keep getting tight when I'm not having adjustments?

I have a hard time following the sequence of how fills and heartburn coincide? You didn't say anything about being tight, you just say you have heartburn? Is the heartburn and tightness happening simultaneously? Do you associate heartburn with tightness and is it difficult to drink fluids or eat soupy foods?

Yes tightness correlated with heart burn and my surgeon says anytime I have heart burn it is a tight band.

That is my question how I am I getting so tight when I'm not having fills recently before?

I am seeing my surgeon monday and will have an unfill and he says he will answer all these questions. Just curious if anyone has had this before when you are 3 months post fill and then tight.

Let's hope he does a barium swallow to make sure your band is where it should be.
