I had a fill a few weeks ago. I felt rather alot of tightness in my back and chest about a week after. Occassionally I am still having the tightness. I have never really had this problem before. I did call the doctor but at the time it had went away. Now its back. I wonder if I need to Relearn how to eat because in the Whole time I have had my band (2006)I have never had any problems eating whatever I wanted and I have never had to do the whole drink slowly thing. I can swollow everything just fine. Foods like onions and peppers I could eat before now give me gas. Its just I feel alot of pressure in my throat/chest/back. One thing my doctor mentioned that that maybe I am having espogeal spasms.. I really dont know much about that. I wonder if it sounds like that could be my issue. or maybe I am just finally at some kind of max resitriction and need to eat better or maybe I am a tad too tight? Any input would be great.

  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.

    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.

  Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
