Esophageal spasms???

Hello.....does anyone have problems with your esophagus having spasms everytime you get a fill or try to eat? I know most say this is a sign of the band being too tight but that is not my problem. With every fill I have had and i am at 7cc in a 10cc band this happens. It also happens when I eat sometimes and causes severe burping?? Anyone been down this road?

Just got my first fill. I have the same problem. It seems like, everytime I drink something, liquid goes down and air comes up. It's very uncomfortable. I also have a 10cc band. Origanally I had 1.3cc in at surgery and my doc put 4cc in this time. It's tight but foods and liquids past. Believe it or not but food goes down better than liquids...

Is this up high or down toward your stomach? I am having something similar and didn't know what it was.

My employer had an exemption for weight loss surgery. So I had to use my husband's military insurance.
