You are too tight. Go get a little Fluid removed.

Could be that you are eating too late. If I eat after 8pm,l I get the same thing. But, if I have nothing to eat, then I am fine. Try to stop eating eary in the evening, if that is the problem. Karen

Speaking from experience, you are too tight. Have you been vomiting which can irritate your stomach and cause swelling which then makes you too tight and then reflux/cough. Back your diet down to liquids and mushies until you can get a deflate. Also, take something for the acid, prilosec, zantac... My band is slipped and may need to be surgiacally repositioned. All my trouble started with the night reflux/cough.

Good luck!

My doctor says night coughing is due to your band being too tight. Sounds like you need a little flui taken out.

This happens to me if I eat too late or prior to going to bed or while in bed watching TV... a bad habit I've had all my life. The mucous is actually secretions to prevent damage to your esophagus. Sometimes I sleep on two pillows till the feeling passes. Try avoiding eating anything prior to going to bed.

I just went threw this about a month ago, and the mucus is thick !

I went in, and they unfilled some, not much.

It's liveable, and much more comfortable.

Go see your Dr...

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
