Haven't been on for a while thought band life was going awesome. Below my goal weight by 15 pounds. And now I have gained 10. Constant feeling that something is stuck in my throat and having horrible problems with my neck and shoulder on left side. Scared to death my band has eroded. Seen my pcp who is sending me to ortho and ENT doctors, but I am afraid they are going to say the band is the problem. Just have that feeling.

I hope whatever it is ends up being easy to treat or fix. Please let us know.

@@mrsjec How about following up with your band Dr. and having them check the band for you to rule out that issue and give yourself some stress relief and or be aware of any issues it might have?

It's an all day event to get to the office and right now getting time off work isn't possible. Asked about a ct. He can't order where I live and my pcp won't order because that makes him responsible for results! Seriously. That was the answer given to me.
