I have went back on full liquids all day today, after basically being up and down most of the night. I have only had one episode of severe hunger, but I am hoping that tonight I will at least get to sleep. I'll keep you posted on how it goes.

My reflux is awful. Never before surgery, but since it has been awful. I sleep with HOB elevated, don't eat late, have stopped those foods which seem to cause it. Even meds don't help. I even had fill removed for almot two years. Gained all my weight back. I have had a small fill and of course it is as bad as ever. (Even with fill removed still had some). I even reflux water. Tried to take a nap with nothing but water and was awakened 3 times choking and coughing watery acid reflux. I'm so down. Maybe I am just meant to be fat. I'm going to try and go back to just liquids and see if this makes any difference. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

I have been combing through these discussions looking for someone who might have similar situations as I do. My band makes me always uncomforable. severe reflux at night. Wake up choking and coughing from reflux several times a night. My band isn't new. It is a small one only 4cc and I believe I have 2 ccs in it. I do have periods of feeling hungry, but the reflux and pain make me not want to eat. After reading the threads it seems like I may have a slippage. I'm going to try the all liquids and see if it gets better. Anyone got any other suggestions?
