kerrbear72 55 Posted January 25, 2013 I have a simple question. If your sick with cold or flu where u have a bit of drainage does your amount of eats drop. Can being sick cause your band to tighten Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
laurigee 545 Posted January 25, 2013 There are so many things that make people's band feel tighter and being sick is definitely one of those! Hope if your sick you start feeling better soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2muchfun 8,927 Posted January 25, 2013 I think it's natural for our bodies to retain fluids when we sick. That would include your stomach and just a little swelling can create more tightness. tmf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

willowcat 93 Posted January 26, 2013 This is going to sound gross, but where do you think the snot is draining to? Your stomach! Mucous is not band-friendly... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
