    Need Lap Band Buddy / Mentor Acid Reflux

    :smile2: Well I have an update. I went and had an upper GI on Monday and found out that I have a buldge. That is where the stomach before the band is getting bigger due to eating bread ( which I can't do) OR-- not filling full and eating and stretching out the stomach ( which I do). I found myself breathing through my meals to feel it "go down" and eat more.. I never felt full at 7.2 cc's. well it was bc the food was filling up in the boldge. My Dr has removed all of the fluid, he is going to give me another xray in 30 days and see if that deflates the pouch. If not, its off to my 3rd surgery.. Yes my 3rd.. My 2nd was a slippage about 1.5 years ago. I have never found the sweat spot in all of these fills. I was either too much or too little. I never would have thought this would be so hard to wrap my head around. So now I am holding onto the hope that I will not gain in 30 days and believe in myself that perhaps I dont need the fill. Wish me luck!! Yes lets be mentors.. We need each other in all of this!!

    acid reflux

    I have had it out once and looking at doing it again.. NOthing is helping.. any relief?
  5. :blushing:Going on 4 years with the band.. The last 6-8 months I have had major acid reflux.. I never had acid before the band. The only thing is to remove all fluid. I have done this once already. Not sure what to do next. I have taken acid reducers sometimes it works sometimes it does not. Looking for advice. Also looking for a mentor... still stuggling with the food demons!!
