aubrie 6 Posted April 20, 2007 I have a very strong gag reflex. I gag when I brush my teeth, and many foods cause me to gag. I don't like the feel of it in my throat. (pudding, guacamole, bananas) Many mornings brushing my teeth will actually cause me to vomit. Will this make me a poor candidate for a lap band? I'm afraid it will cause slipping. Although I don't really understand what "slipping" means. Advice? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
