Sleeping Problem - need advice

I am going to sleep at night almost sitting straight up, yet occasionally I'll awake an hour or so after falling asleep with the feeling of food backing up in my throat. When I had this before my dr. took the fill level down but then of course I wasn't restricted enough. I now feel as if the restrictio is right and both he and I think I could up even more; I'm now at 2.6 cc and have been banded for 2 years.

Would appreciate hearing from any of you who have had this problem and come up with solutions. I'm not eating after 8 pm except for a cup of herbal tea. ALL ADVICE APPRECIATED. Thanks.

I'm answering so your post so it will bump back up to the top of the page. I know there are banders who have experienced this problem and hopefully someone will be able to give you advice.

No problem. I just hope someone who has had this problem reads your post and can offer you some suggestions. My first thought would be to ease off on the restriction a bit, but it sounds like that's really not the issue since you don't feel very restricted during the day.

I think a poster named "Cleo's Mom" had similar issues at night. You might want to try sending her a PM.
