Can't eat or drink while sitting

[MeJ 11]

3 days post op. I have to lay on my side in order to get my liquids in. Weird. Anyone else go through this with the sleeve?

Probably swollen up in some weird way/angle of sleeve. I could barely drink anything on day 3 Sip sip sip. It'll get better!

I learned I needed to sit up strait to drink in the beginning! If not it was painful. After a week or so it just felt better and now it's no bother at all (9 weeks out now)

I am a year out from lap-band surgery and having trouble, for the last couple weeks I have to stand up to eat or it gets stuck and causes terrible burping or throwing up, any ideas what might be wrong, also get sharp pain in my band if I bend over. Thanks everyone for any help you can offer. I go back to the Doctor on June 16.

I had to stand in order to drink comfortably when I was in the hospital.
