Anyone have problems after flying?

I have just returned from a week long trip to spain (I live in the UK). I had terrible problems eating much for 3 or 4 days after each flight. It felt like I had severe restriction after the flight and could not manage much more than a few mouthfulls. I was PB'ing extremely badly after a couple of mouthfulls when I had not PB'd much at all before that.

I wondered if anyone else had experienced this. I am taking a 9 hour flight in August and am thinking of having an unfill before I go purely because it was so unpleasant.

On the upside, I didnt put on an ounce of weight!!!

i've flown between Germany and America twice now and had no problems. I did not have a lot of restriction then. Maybe if you have a lot of restriction it might make a difference? It will be interesting to see the other answers on this.

My doctors office warned me that flying can cause the band to tighten from swelling. Like your feet can get swollen on a plane, the same effect can cause your band to feel tighter. They gave me less of a fill because they new I was flying a few days later.
