HI there the fluid was a yellowy colour

Hi folks let me give you a run down on whats been happening and i will ask for your opinions back in march my Fluid was discoloured and i had new fluid put in and an extra .5ml strait away i noticed my eating was painful passing through the band (a new sensation in 4 years) i assumed the band was starting to work as i had only lost 20 pounds in 4 years. so with in a few weeks food had lodged and i was being sick just saliva i was bringing up. i had a few ml taken out the band and i could drink Water again a few weeks later a blocked after food happened again and the remainder of fluid was taken out again it was discoloured so i am booked in for a scan with dye injected into the band and a swallow scan the doctor mentioned errosion as i am now fully drained and i still have 90% restriction find it dificult to drink coffee laying in bed at night i garrgle and make weird noises . has anyone else had these symtoms? many thanks
