Hello,
I have had my band for almost 2 years. Things have been going well until a few months ago. I started noticing that it feels like there is something stuck in my throat, and I really need to swallow it! It can happen any time of day, and I am concerned that it is band related. I recently moved to a new state and just established care with a primary physician and mentioned it to her and she gave me the "it's all in your head" look. I've read that it could be related to reflux and that concerns me as that has never been an issue for me. I truly can feel something in the back of my throat, but no matter how many times I swallow, it won't go down. I should also mention that I have had more vomiting episodes than normal for me. I usually know when I took too big a bite, or didn't chew well enough, but lately they have been catching me off guard. I won't throw up until 15-20 min. after I'm done eating even thought it felt like everything went through fine. Has anyone else every had this issue? Any ideas what it could be? I am trying to find a new doctor here as soon as possible.
