You can get acid reflux if your band is too tight or you go to bed too soon after eating.

For some reason this is something that seems to occur for no apparent reason. You possibly need some Fluid removed.

I am experiencing the exact same problem you are. I've been blessed this long that I haven't had any problems. Three nights ago, all of a sudden, it hit me and it hit me hard!! I haven't had any heartburn or reflux since before surgery. I did have a hernia repaired during surgery. I've put myself back on liquids for a few days to see if it helps...I guess only time will tell :(

I stop eating after dinner, around 6:30pm, and go to bed around midnight. If I eat beyond that I run the risk of having acid reflux at night. It's a great motivater to stop night time snacking!!

I agree. thats even good for anyone with reflux before the band...eat at 6 or 630pm and dont go to bed until like 11pm.

Now if you go workout a couple hours after eating...that would help as well.
