Hey...I have had this exact thing happen to me... I tried to eat speghatti which i found out I can no longer do.. the noodles would not go down...so i made myself throw up..but it still felt like there was something stuck...just like you described like heart burn with no burning...so I waited a little while and then tried to drink a smoothie and that wouldnt go down...so i went on clear liquids for 24 hours and apparently my stomach was just swollen and nothing was truely stuck in there.. 24 hours later i was good.... it is scary because i thought that i was gonna have to go to dr to get saline taken out but i only have 2cc currently and little restriction...

Hello all, I was just banded on 05/27/09 and I am doing better everyday. However, I am having issues with bloating after I drink almost anything UGH. I am drinking extremely slow to the point where I could almost use a dropper instead LOL. I saw my doctor today for follow up just to find out that the PROTEIN I need for energy is what is causing me the bloating...just great. If I don't drink the protein I get very weak and if i do drink it I fell bloated and miserable. My dr suggested that I continue to try different protein drinks or try egg white powder, yummy. Has anybody out there experienced this? Any suggestions? HELP I am sooo uncomfortable all the time with the bloating....
