I love spicy food, the spicier the better but since the band I find I am getting the worst heart burn after spicy food like jalepenos or Thai curry. Is this typical? Does anyone else have this issue?

I love sriracha, jalapenos, green chili stew with TNT chilis, hot indian curry and I have no problems other than I sleep poorly after spicy foods. But that's always been the case.

I use to love spicy food and now can't do any spice at all. What do I mean? If something is spicy my band closes up.is the feeling I get. I try to stay away from even bbq sauce that isn't sweet. I do every now and then get a strong taste for it and try something small. Sometimes it works but not often.

No problem for me !

no problem for me either.

Other than an occasional hiccup no problem at all!

I used to have heartburn somthing terrible, pre banding. I haven't heartburn even once since my band....almost 5 year ago now. And I enjoy VERY spicy foods at times.

Sorry, no problem for me too. Good luck.

It's typical for me. I used to love really spicy food; now, my stoma feels irritated when I eat hot stuff, so I really watch it.
