Chest Pains and the band ?



Recommended Posts

DONT FREAK !! I am not sure if i am having anxiety attacks or what is going on . This has happened to me twice in the last month or so . Keep in mind I am under an UN GAWDLY amount of stress right now .

But I have been having some kind fo chest pains or pressure.

Both times happened when I did not get "StucK" but like it was just enough to say That's it your done eating.

Today I ate some egg noodles. Sometimes i can tolerate them sometimes i cant. So now Im having those pains again .

It hurts when I take a deep breathe sometimes.

I will go get this checked if it keeps up and when i have the money , just curious if anyone else experiences this ?

I posted about it a long time ago. Mine were sharp and quick but came back and they put me in the ER to rule out heart. It ended up being acid reflux which I suppose can be stress related too but mine was related to the band. They put me on protonix and I had my band removed because of it and the fact the band didn't work for me. I never had the reflux that went up to my throat and felt like heart burn so that's kind of why the reflux thing flew me for a loop even though I knew it wasn't my heart. Get it checked out, you know you should, take care, Nancy.:smile:

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
