Are you having this issue at night? If you are experiencing a night cough you will want to follow up with your bariatric Dr. as you could be having reflux.

Reflux could also be the cause of wheezing as Fluid backs up into the airway. Give your doctor a call and follow up with your surgeon to determine that your symptoms are not the result of reflux.

Let us know how your doing!!

No not having any issues at night.

I've had the band for 7 yrs and no problems at all, thank God! :)

But about I started to notice that I get like a wheezing and the need to.cough to clear my throat. It just comes and goes out of no where. Sometimes it comes after I exercise, or sometimes it comes with out me doing nothing. I feel good, no pain no vomiting.

Was just wondering if anyone else had experienced anything like this during their yrs with the band.

Thanks :)

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
