Hi to all you banders,

On the 19th November,2008 I received my band but while the doctor operated he also repaired a hiatus hernia.

I am still on a Fluid diet but after eating or drinking I have a reflux motion which results in a peculiar noise and then the taste of blood in my throat.

Would love to know if anyone else has experienced anything similar.

Terri:

I recommend that you call your doctor. If you are ten days out and you think you're bleeding inside that could be a problem. I had hiatal hernia repair too. Didn't have any issues like yours. Hope you feel better soon. Keep us posted.
