Unexplained night time reflux



Recommended Posts

Hi all, I recently got my band refilled 5 months post birth - I'm at about 3.3ccs - definitely not too tight and no stuck or vomiting episodes. I follow the post fill guidelines meticulously.

I had a recent barium swallow - no pouch, placement is good - basically no issues.

And yet, middle-of-the-night reflux episodes. The band isn't even tight enough for it to be doing its job.

Has anyone else experienced this? What could be the issue?

For some reason this just happens, some people even have reflux with no fill. Have you tried all the general advice such as not eating close to bed time , avoiding spicy foods, not drinking with meals etc?

You may need to get meds and if they don’t work and it persists you may have to book an appointment with your surgeon.
