3 years post-op with a total of 127 lbs. lost and I could not be happier! However, I would like to lose an additional 40 lbs. and cannot seem to be able to get past the after fill reflux. It is absolutely unbearable at night. Don't seem to have any reflux symptoms during the day. I have tried elevating my bed with books under the posts. I even bought a wedge pillow to go under the mattress and none of these changes had any effect on my reflux. Doctor gave me a script for Prilosec and no change. Had to go back to doctor and have fill reversed and now everything is fine as far as reflux goes. Doctor has no suggestions as to how to get past this situation. Does anyone have any? Thanks,

The band is allowing me to maintain my current weight. About a year ago weight loss leveled off and I can't seem to lose any more. I had a fill to start the weight loss again and the reflux started so I had some removed and the reflux stopped. Recently tried a fill and here came the reflux again so I had some removed and reflux went away. I'd really like to lose 40 more lbs. but can't seem to
