The Greater Fool 2,054 Posted October 14, 2021 I think it would be prudent to call your Doc and express clearly the extent of your discomfort and work out a plan of action(s) to resolve it. Good luck, Tek Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomo 1,194 Posted October 14, 2021 Had a band for several years. Successful weight loss but later it embedded into my esophagus caused all kinds of problems. I was forced to remove it. The night cough and acid was the beginning of gerd/esophagitis. Perhaps call your team, and get a barium swallow to look at your band just to make sure you are safe from serious issues.

Sunnyway 345 Posted October 14, 2021 Please see a surgeon. Bands fail and are frequently revised to RSG Gastric Bypass. Your chest pain may be an indicator that all is not well with your lap band. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
