If you just got a fill a few days ago you could have irratated your band. It sounds like you might have eaten to fast, too big a bit and/or not chewed the bit to mush. Your bits will have to get smaller with each fill and chewing till mush will be a must. If you can still drink with no problem then you are probably not too tight. I would do liquids/mushies for a while (day or 2). If you are having a hard time drinking then call your doctor and get a little unfill. It is always best to call your doctor and let them know what happened.

Good luck, hope you feel better soon.

I am curious too as to how you can tell if it is too tight. I had mine filled 5 days ago and ever sincee I feel like something is stuck in my throat. I can still get food down and I chew alot. I am not getting choked but still feel like something is stuck. I am having a hard time getting my pills to go down. I still taste them several hours later. Any ideas??

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
