Have you just had a fill? You may be too constricted - I had similar symptoms which were cured but the removal of some of the fluid from my band.

Followup as soon as possible. Comfort is bliss.

did you eat any solids?

nope..no fill..just on my 8th day...i ate eggs for breakfast...but its been hurting since the day of surgery. i think i might try prilosec otc...we shall see!

My dr gave me prescription strength prevacid to take everyday, he gives it to all his patients. Its a pill and disolves in your mouth. I have noticed my i cant take deep breaths like I used to without pressure.

Good luck!

bentsam make you sure you contact your doctor..that is what they are there for. Also, have you been walking? The more you walk the better you will feel. This could be still from the surgery and the band adjusting to being in your body. I believe I know exactly where the pain is..but usually that is when your band is too tight and/or you have eaten something wrong (did it hurt when you ate the eggs for breakfast). I had it before when I had to have a slight unfill..I couldn't even get liquids down. When you had the surgery did your dr tell you if he/she put any saline in your band? Most of the time now they don't but some do?? That is why my first response was to contact your doctor and why aklhoney immediatly thought you just had a fill??
