First cold since banding...

Alright you seasoned veterans...

Do you have more restriction when you've got a cold going?

I've got an upper respiratory thing at the moment, and it stinks! I know most folks usually have less appetite when they're sick, and this is true for me as well... but I had trouble getting some veggie Soup down today, and that's not at all normal for me.

I've also been trying to up my h2o intake the past two days since that makes me feel better when I'm sick. I'm not having any trouble getting my Water down, but I'm having to force myself to drink, because I'm not thirsty at all.

Just wondering if most folks experience this, or if I'm just imagining things.

I'm sure you're not imagining anything because we all have different reactions with our bands. I had a pretty nasty cold last January, but I didn't have any noticeable changes in my band pressure.

I hope you're feeling better soon.
