Get burning sensation in my throat

Since my last fill I'm getting this horrible burning sensation in my throat most of the time and specially when I lie down. My band is not that tight and in fact I'm not in green zone yet and so afraid of going for adjustment and making it tighter. I feel it would make it worse. I discuss the issue with my dr but she just gave me anti acid tablets. Does anyone have similar problem? Please guide me. I'm getting so worry :(

It sounds as though it may be reflux, which in turn suggests that your band may be a tad too tight now. I get the feeling that reflux is what you're thinking?

Use the tablets as prescribed. If you're referring to lying down for the night, don't eat after 7pm. In general it's a good idea not to lie down within a few hours after eating if you're talking about a nap or just unwinding during the day. If the burning sensation doesn't stop in a few days or so, call your doctor again. She'll probably have you come in to remove a decimal point or so of the saline.

In case you haven't heard, the band is known as a fickle bitchh. An unpleasant effect at one time doesn't mean it's for all time. No need to get discouraged.
