I read on the board about the band tightening after a flight. I have to say, it's true. I flew from Corpus Christi to Washington DC last week. The little short flight to Houston at 19,000 ft. didn't do anything, but on the long flight to DC at 30,000+ ft. I could literally feel it tightening up. :huh2:It was a little uncomfortable and I couldn't eat a thing. I rarely get stuck and have never PB'd, but I got stuck several times the 3 days followiing the flight. :confused_smile:It was the oddest sensation. :wink: I can't even really describe it, but I could definately feel it. I guess since the band is under pressure, the change in pressure outside my body affects the pressure inside. Just thought I would verify that.
