Night cough

[Sophie139 38]

Hi!! I was banded on 11/12 and I haven't had my first fill yet. The other day I had some string cheese and I felt stuck. I didn't throw up or regurgitate. Then that night and for the last two nights I've been experiencing coughing after dinner and night time cough. I haven't had any reflux or anything to go with it. Did I slip my band? I'm calling the doctors office in the morning, but I just wanted some advice so I don't worry the whole night

I know one of the questions asked on my monthly paperwork for my doctor asks about night coughs, so this is definitely something you want to bring to your doctor's attention.

Definitly talk to your doctor, but, to ease the anxiety, more than likely is not a slipped band, however, it does sound like you are still stuck with the cheeze. Try drinking several small cans of pineapple juice, followed by hot or warm liquids, which will help dislodge whatever is lingering on. I use the pineapple juice Dole brand. The acids in pineapple juice is what helps dislodge and clear the stuck episode. This usually does it for me. jake
