Hello~ I was banded about 5 years ago and did really well the first 4 years. I now have all kinds of problems and I an wondering if anyone else has these issues. I can't lay down flat at night or I wake up choking from regurdgitation. I often feel like something is stuck in my throat and it sometimes can feel that way all day. I can eat something just fine one day and the next time I try it, i throw up several times after eating it. I also don't notice restriction after I get tightened anymore. I haven't been tightened in over a year and a half because I just don't feel a difference anymore. Anyone else???
