Hello - I'm back!
I was banded in October 07 by Mr John Rogers and I'm doing very well so far. I weighed in at 128kgs, and now weigh 102.6. I have been tightened twice and it's unlikely I will need to be tightened again as my food intake is now miniscule. I've lost 3 dress sizes and feel like a human again.
BUT - whilst my portions are small and I don't eat after 9pm at night before going to bed between 11.30-12am, I seem to be having problems with acid.
I get woken a couple of times a night by the acid in my mouth which also makes me cough and makes my throat feel sore.
Has anyone else had this problem?
