I got pneumonia. 2 years out. Not "dieting" but wondering two things. Is my immune system shot because of the restriction? I also read that people with problems "swallowing" may be more vulnerable to contracting pneumonia. please contact me at my direct:sick email. I don't really go on these much. ggleyva@yahoo.com

If anything I'd think you would be healthier and would have an improved immune system. People without bands get pneumonia as well. I have not read any studies that show banded folks get pneumonia at higher rates vs. unbanded folks.

Sorry, I don't email. I post.
