Help acid reflux and gurgling after weight gain

Hi I'm about 3.5 years out of surgery .since last fill

Ive lost about 50 pounds in total

But in the last 8 months I've gained about 10 pounds. I now have slime backing up if I eat too quick and some acid back flush through the night, and some weird noisy burping and gurgling noises coming from the throat

can the band tighten up through weight gain ?

reasons for gain are sliders lots of business meals and lots of long haul flying

any comments welcome

I'd discuss it with your doctor. If there are any abnormalities you should get them checked out and see what's going on.

Otherwise, no advice here except to lay off the slider foods ;)

Your band will not increase restriction following weight gain. However it is not good having avid reflux at night.
I suggest that you should have a substantial aspiration to rest the band as you could possibly have a dilated pouch.
