Curious. I am currently a college student and last week I started a class in a room where the chairs are part of the desks, they sort of swing out. Well, I can barely fit in them and its mildly uncomfortable, but then thats always been the case for chairs for me, but the desk part puts pressure around the area where my lapband is. A few days later I began experiencing a bunch of acid reflux. I have not had problems passing food through though, just periodic bouts of the acid reflux. I actually hadn't made the possible connection until just now when my cat decided to lay on my stomach and it almost immediately caused the acid reflux sensation. So basically, can prolonged pressure (The class is 2 and a half hours long) create problems with the band?

I feel much less stressed about it now, it was where I received multiple blood thinner injections during my stay, and I also sat down and watched TV for a little bit while drinking some water and I could still feel the pressure like before. I think I was just thrown for a loop when I went to go to bed earlier and didn't feel it much. Thanks! I'll keep a good eye on it still too.

I'm a little over a week past my surgery, the first few days it took forever to get liquids and stuff down and everything has pretty much steadily gotten better. The problem is this morning I woke up and there was a large bruise near the bottom of my belly, nowhere near the incisions but almost like the blood was pooling there. I don't have any pain but at the same time the mild tightness that I felt before is gone. Did get some slippage or something? Edit: Basically, its a combination of this weird bruise + I feel almost...normal, like I did before hand, with the exception of the healing incisisons, which barely hurt as it is. It just seems a little fast to be feeling normal...
