So I have noticed that sometimes when I feel more pressure than usual when food is going down, if i move my bra up, it releases pressure. I did it just now and it made me burp quite a bit. could my bra be pushing on my band? I know when i did the test where they messure the pressure in your esophagus that mine was different than most peoples. The doctor said that in relationship to my diaphram, my esophagus is higher than most peoples. Could this be why? Is anyone else having this problem?

I have heard of many woman saying if they feel pain/pressure when eating they lift the middle of the bra up for a minute or two to let the food go down. I myself have only had 1 experience since being banded of food getting "stuck" and i tried it for myself... i think it helped a bit but the first minute i lifted my bra from the clevege area i felt even more disconfort before i started to feel relief therefor im not sure if it helped me or if the food just made its way down slowly...

sorry i cant be more helpful to you... just wanted to let you know i have heard of this before.
