tight air bubbles in my chest/throat

[azkjn1 0]

I was banded on August 21. Still doing mostly liquids and soft foods. I don't over do it because I'm scared of doing damage. I constantly have pressure in my chest and that lump in my throat.I can feel the burp "roll up" and then stick there in my throat. It is soooo painful.Not sure what I can do or what is causing this. Do I have a slip in my band? Or is everything just still swollen.Noy really sure how to tell or really what i"m supposed to be feeling ?HELP:help::cry

I seriously doubt you have a slip this soon after banding. Trapped gas is very common after surgery and can take up to a month to dissipate. The best solution is WALK, WALK and WALK some more! Also, try any over-the-counter gas relief medicine. Gas-X makes strips that dissolve on your tongue. Welcome to bandland!!

Hi there. I have the same feeling. It does seem to go away with the more walking I do though. Keep me updated if you figure a cure!
