country lovin 16 Posted February 19, 2015 I had to be unfilled 6 weeks ago due to being too tight and vomiting mom stop. When I had my surgery to put my band in he fixed the hernia. No more acid reflux after that until now. I got a small fill 2 weeks ago and feel no restriction but for the past three nights I wake up with horrible acid reflux. I am really worried. I go back for another fill in 10 days. When he fills me I under the X-ray the whole time and was told the bad was great and in the right position no worries. So now I so afraid that something is wrong and I do not have the money to do anythin as my insurance doesn't cover anything. Advice??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
orlena72 0 Posted February 22, 2015 Hi I've been banded for 3years and I've had problems with acid reflux the whole time. I'm taking prescribed nexium everyday. I have to sleep with a wedge pillow. This is something that a lot of us with lap bands go through. Don't eat and lay down. Try and wait at least 2hours before laying down. I hope this helps.
