Hi GLJ. Definitely go to the doc. They might put you on Prilosec, perhaps experiment with the tightness of you band to see if that'll give you relief. Additionally, look up acid reflux and foods that increase acid production (ie dairy, coffee etc) and try to minimize those, or eat them w/ foods etc

You call your doctor and get checked out immediately.

Just curious, what size band do you have?
