Hey everyone! It's been a long time since I been on here. I went back to my lap band dr. Yesterday cause I gained weight recently due to new medications I'm on for anxiety and depression. I haven't had a fill in almost 2 years cause my weight was staying the same. He gave me a fill yesterday and I don't feel hungry at all which is great but...I keep burping when I drink Water and I was waking up coughing last night. I am able to swallow my meds but my stomach feels weird and my back feels weird too like they are both hurting a little. Can my band be too tight? Any help will be appreciated thanks.

I am

I am in the same boat! I just had a full last week and I think my band might be too tight but at the same time of I go back and have fluid taken out In afraid they will take too much out. Unlike you I am able to take my medication. You should call your Dr. If you haven't already. I just had my band filled after a long time not using. So I am starting up again. I think I now understand how to.use it as a tool. Let me know how how you are doing. Let me know if you want to keep in tough so.we can go through this start up mission tohether.

Sounds like you are too tight.
