I was banded on 10/12/2011. I am due for my 4th fill in two weeks. I have been having alot of acid reflux and some vomiting. When I eat it seems like my food gets stuck in my espophogus and will not move down.This hurts really bad! During surgery I had my hiatal hernia repaired. Not sure if it's from that or something else. When I swallow my food it will not move. And when I vomit I have more mucus than food coming out. I take Prilosec every morning. I try to eat slow but sometimes get a little to anxious and eat too quickly! Is my band too tight? Is there anything I can do or change to prevent this from happening?

I would get in to see my doctor sooner. You don't want to take a chance on having a slipped band which reflux could be a sign of. Sounds like you are too tight in my opinion.

Sounds like you're having a "stuck" and "sliming "episode, doesn't sound like acid reflux..

Maybe you are right. It may not be acid reflux. I wonder what it could be?

      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.
